The entrance gates and pillars on Greenbank Crescent originally formed the entrance to Comiston House in Camus Avenue.Unfortunately the ornamental stonework on the right hand pillar was knocked off by a delivery vehicle in February in connection with work on the new bridge at the south end of the Park. Their insurers accepted the claim and a contract was let by Edinburgh Council Bridges and Structures Department to have the stone urn and damaged pillar replaced. The stone mason has sourced stone with as close a match to the original as possible and the work was completed at the start of August. It is hoped the new stonework will soon weather down to match the colour of the rest of structure.
