1. Can anyone tell me the location of Burgess Walk that is shown? I have several old maps of the Boro but none show this particular place & it has got me curious.

2. Hello Malcolm,

   We have found a map from 1930 that shows Burgess Walk to be in between Croydon Road and Park Vale Road (Parallel to Lothian Road).

   Kind regards,

4. I lived on Croydon Road for 20 years but it never occurred to me until now to ask who or what Burgess Walk was named after.
