An old resident who in later years was an occupant, while poking the fire on one occas- ion, hit the back of the fireplace. This to his great surprise opened and fell back, being a single stone skilfully pivoted. A flight of stone steps was revealed which led to the cellar, and the passage terminated at the built up opening to a turnpike stair. As the house was taken down before this information reached investigating antiquarians, further particulars were not obtained.
The steep, winding Cockbu...m Street was named after Lord Cockbum, a famous judge, and a most entertaining diarist and annalist of his time. Where the magnificent " Scots- man '* buildings now stand, was once the site of Mylne Square, erected by the same royal architect who designed Mylne's Court. In Digitized by VjOOQ IC The High Street 329 one of the tenements on the west side of the square lived Lord Chief- Justice Clerk Alva up whose staircase so often mounted the notorious old fox Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat, in his subtle game of hide-and-seek with the law.
