52 Kenneth Sinclair StewartI remember there was an effort to set up such a museum in the school at Newhaven back in the late 1950s. Fifty years later we are still waiting. It is an absolute disgrace. There were opportunities when the whisky bonds were being renovated. What about the Leith Customs House, what is happening there? A splendid site would be the deserted theatre behind Leith Library at the foot of Ferry Road.

64 Trishna SinghI have lived in Leith for 32 years having come from Glasgow. In Leith there has been a Sikh community for at least 60-70 years and they have a great history to share with the future generations of young Leithers, there is definitely a need for a museum.
65 Frank FerriGIVE LEITH IT'S OWN MUSEUM NOW AND STOP THE NEGLECT OF THIS VEY OLD AND HISTORIC BURGH EVER SINCE. CENTURIES AGOI IT WAS THE BURGESSES THAT ROBBED LEITH AND EVER SINCE EDINBURGH MORE OR LESS COMANDERED LEITH IN THE 1920s IT''sEEN ALL DOWN HILL FROM THERE AND DON@T THINK FOR ONE MINUITE THAT WHEN IN THE 50s LEITHERS WERE SCATTERED TO THE FOUR CONERS OF THE CITY THAT OUR SPIRIT HAS GONE. WERE STILL HERE IN STREANGTH AND GROWING PRIDE. MY PREFERED MUSEUM SITE IS THE OLD CUSTOM HOUSE< A VERY APPROPRIATE LOCATION.
66 ALICE LAUDERThis Mueseum is long overdue for Leith. We have a rich history to display and I am sure many people are just waiting to donate artefacts and stories of Leith to the Museum.

73 Steve MitchellStrongly support the use of Lambs House for this project, and am willing to campaign for that and all other options.
74 Paul McCaffreyLong overdue in this area of rich cultural heritage.
75 Noel SpencerThe rich maritme heritage of Leith deserves to have a museum,what a more fitting place for it would be the Custom House at Commercial Street.
76 Rami OkashaThis is an excellent campaign and I think it will be very useful for local schools, too.
77 Connie NewmanI was born & raised in Leith & although now living south of the border, Leith will always remain home to me. It has a rich heritage & a museum is long overdue. Given its diverse history, it has the potential to be one of the best of its kind.
