[3] After the death of John Scott-Nisbet in 1765 it was bought by a William Miller (1722–99), a wealthy seedsman and Quaker, living on the Canongate, who already owned property in the Craigentinny and Fillyside areas.

The latter layout was by George C Robb with individual tenements by architects Andrew MacCulloch, John Mailler Scott and others.

[6] The remaining estate was laid out with private bungalows largely by James Miller (no relation) and Hepburn Brothers.

The most distinctive and unique structure in the area is the Craigentinny Marbles, a mausoleum to William Henry Miller (1789–1848) by David Rhind with bas reliefs by Sir Alfred Gatley.

Craigentinny Golf Course is an 18-hole par 67 course lying on the north edge of the district close to Seafield and the Firth of Forth.
