Bathrooms in Duddingston village cottages, villas and rural tenements
Duddingston village is a conservation area on the south-east edge of Holyrood Park, about two miles from the city centre. The council's appraisal lists single-storey cottages, Georgian villas and two-storey rural tenements with rear stairs. Stone walls around the plots are part of the character.
Cottages have small rooms and thick walls. Tenement flats in the village use rear access stairs, so we plan how fittings come in. Villas on streets such as Old Church Lane are bigger, but the bathrooms can be dated.
Cottage bathrooms
A shower bath, a slim vanity and wall-hung toilet use the space in a small room better than a full-size suite.
Rear stairs
In a tenement with a rear stair, we check the width and turn of the stair before ordering a bath or shower tray.
Conservation area rules for Duddingston bathroom work
The village was designated in 1975 and the council classes the area as outstanding. Article 4 Directions, which narrow what can be done without permission, were approved in 1976 and amended in 1996. The appraisal notes traditional materials, including timber sash and case windows.
Replacing the bath, toilet and tiles happens inside. Outside changes need care: a new extractor outlet, a replaced window or a flue on a street wall. We tell you if one may need City of Edinburgh Council's consent. Listed houses have extra rules.
Extractor outlets
We pick a route for a fan that avoids the front of the house when possible, then tell you if the council should be asked.
Windows
If your bathroom window faces the street, we plan privacy with frosted glass or a blind rather than changing the frame.
Bathrooms in the 1930s bungalows and 1950s housing around Duddingston
Duddingston is not only the village. Around it are low-density bungalows along the eastern approach, and at Meadowfield a first phase of 1930s bungalows plus a 1950s public housing scheme. The postcodes here are EH15 and EH8.
A bungalow keeps the bathroom on one level, so a walk-in shower is easy to plan. If your 1950s house has a plain rectangular bathroom, a bath-to-shower swap or wall panels can do the job well.
Bungalow shower rooms
We check the floor and the waste route, then fit a walk-in shower or a level-access tray.
1950s house bathrooms
A plain, square room is easy to plan. We show you a shower, a vanity and storage drawn to scale.
