Inscription on a lintel below a stone carving above a doorway of a house on Bell's Brae. Carved before masons had access to a spell checker. For the feature in its complete setting see Patrick Mackies' NT2473 : Bell's Brae, and for another example of the baxters symbol of bakers' 'paddles' see Kim Traynor's image NT2473 : Baxters' symbol in the Dean Village.
The inscription on the lintel is: "God bless the baxters of Edinbrugh [sic]who built this house 1675". The Ancient Incorporation of Baxters (bakers) had a long association with Dean Village, where there were several mills which provided the baxters with flour.
