The Dome, Edinburgh

The Dome, Edinburgh.

Firstly a physicians hall and then owned by a bank.

Ok, first of all it's called the Dome.

See the black and white chequered floor?

And more interesting. Do you see the owl?


I'm going to research this a bit more. It wouldn't surprise me if this is where Burke and Hare's victims were taken.


Eat, drink (and sniff) and be merry folks.

The whole area where The Dome is situated is well known as Surgeons Hall, and I think it was used by many body snatchers to provide bodies for the Doctors.
They used to have a museum which had oddities of human bodies like siamese twins and unusual charecteristics discovered inside people by surgery. I don't know where this has gone, but anyone could see it if they wanted.
