ROCHEID PATH TO RECOVERY
Monday, 24 October 2011
A new group – Friends of the Rocheid Path – has formed to make sure the popular beauty-spot and pedestrian/cycle route between Arboretum Avenue and Inverleith Terrace Lane is better looked after.
Founders want to see the area replanted and enhanced, particularly once extensive and highly disruptive flood-defence measures on the Water of Leith are completed in 2012.
The group's first Annual General Meeting will take place tomorrow evening at Edinburgh Academy.

Rocheid was once intended to be obliterated by Edinburgh's Inner Ring Road plans.
The flood prevention work won't be quite as damaging - in the long term.
