The students have for long felt the want of such accommodation, and they are now indebted to Sir Alexander Grant, Principal, many of the professors of the university, and others, for organising and carrying out the scheme by means of which this excellent ground, beautifully situated, within easy access from Edinburgh, has been made available for their recreation. Besides the ordinary accommodation for the members of the Club, the building includes a dwelling-house for the permanent residence of a professional. The work has been carried out under Mr James Fairley. Architect, Edinburgh.
