Interesting development this week with the launch of Forth Ports' application for outline planning permission for the redevelopment of Leith docks. It appears that one of the possibilities is that it will include a site for a museum. It's not clear to the campaign at this stage how firm a proposal this is, and/or whether there is any suggestion of any funding for such a museum, or just a possible site, but it's certainly interesting. It's also encouraging because it shows that the idea of a Leith museum is catching on (although some - including supporters of the campaign - have strong views a museum should be in the existing Leith rather than in the docks area).
Nevertheless, it's certainly a sign of how our campaign is catching on. We'll be finding out more about the suggestion and reporting back here soon.
