Water tap coming to Picardy Place
18 May 2026
The Council has produced a substantial report to Leith Walk Lib Dem Councillor Jack Caldwell's request last year for greater emphasis on water access for people and plants across Edinburgh, especially in greenspaces.
One good thing to come out of it too is the installation of a water tap (Scottish Water Top Up Tap) at Picardy Place now being back on track.
