DescriptionCalton Hill, the National Monument (11343576273).jpg
Designed by William Henry Playfair and Charles Robert Cockerell and begun in 1826, it was modelled on the Parthenon in Athens and intended as a memorial to Scots killed in the Napoleonic Wars and a national symbol, it was left unfinished in 1829 when the funding dried up. It still looks pretty monumental, dominating the local landscape.
