Ravelston

Ravelston is an area of Edinburgh, Scotland, to the west of the city centre, the east of Corstorphine and Clermiston, the north of Murrayfield, West End and Roseburn and to the south of Queensferry Road (the A90).

The area is primarily made up of fairly large detached and semi-detached family homes, as well as modern apartments and many bungalows.

Ravelston is home to the Mary Erskine School, an independent school incorporated into Stewart's Melville College which is on the far east side of Ravelston, both owned by the Merchant Company of Edinburgh.

The former Faith Mission Bible College was in a Victorian house in Ravelston from 1886 to 1986, before moving to Gilmerton.

There are also other notable buildings including the slightly older Ravelston Lea, a large detached villa typical of the better housing in the area.
