Raeburn Place

CORSON'S NO MORE

Submitted by Editor on
Charlie Ellis looks at 62 Raeburn Place, an address which tells us much about the changing character of Stockbridge. 
 
The transition from Corson Hardware to Mootz General Store perfectly encapsulates Stockbridge’s continuing evolution. Mootz has emerged as one of Edinburgh’s ‘hottest food spots’, known for serving up Italian deli sandwiches of dramatic scale, frequently dubbed ‘iPad-sized slabs’ and ‘absolute units’.

What’s going on at No 62 Raeburn Place?

Only a few weeks after opening in the lavishly refurbished former premises of Corson’s the ironmongers, the Stockroom deli (‘for foodies by foodies’) suddenly and mysteriously shut up shop.  

No explanatory notice has been posted in the window, and some two months’ unopened mail piles up inside the front door.
