Can you tell me where I have sketched?
A view down an alley way but to where?
Leave your answer in the comment box below.
Your comment will not show up until I reveal the answer. Closing time for entering is midnight tonight and I will pick a random winner from all correct entries by this time tomorrow.
This week’s prize is a screen printed tote bag featuring my Edinburgh Castle illustration.
Keep an eye on my facebook and twitter feeds for clues if they are needed later today, and remember you can also see my weekly competition in the printed version of the Edinburgh Evening News each Monday.
Keep looking up and noticing the beauty in the everyday, you never know where I will be sketching next!
My Edinburgh sketched merchandise is available on my Etsy shop and I am now available for Christmas commissions. Email contact@www.edinburghsketcher.com for more details.

This is the view along Forrest Hill, to the old Drill Hall, once a military building and now part of Edinburgh University.

More next Monday, have a great week 🙂
Forest Hill leading to the former T.A. Drill Hall which is now used by Edinburgh University.
Forest Hill
I know of this as the Drill Hall in Forrest Hill off Forrest Road (not to be confused with Forest Row near East Grinstead). The building was once used by Professor Michie to house Frederick – an ICL 4100 computer linked to Edinburgh Schools providing Internet-like services before the Internet was invented in the late 1960’s.
It is still part of the Edinburgh University Campus.
