No brass rubbing today

brass rubbing edinburghOr even yesterday, which is when I tried to visit the Brass Rubbing Centre, just off the Royal Mile, down Chalmers Close. Unfortunately the was a sign up saying the building was closed until further notice.

The sketch shows the BRC sign on the outside of the building known as Trinity Apse, part of the 15th Century Trinity College church and hospital. The original Trinity church was demolished in the 1840s to make way for Waverley Railway Station, but the apse was rebuilt on its current site from original stones in the 1870s.

Perhaps they are refurbishing the interior, I’ll have to pop back and see.
