About this memory

This apple orchard, tucked away in the community lands behind Duddingston Village, has begun to bloom on the cusp of summer. The untrimmed grass of the hillside would have you believe you are off in a distant village rather than a forty five an hour’s walk from the Royal Mile. One of the charms of Edinburgh.
