        The Citadel built in North Leith by Monck was a large pentagonal construction with walls faced with hewn stone. It had five bastions, with barracks and stone building for magazines and stores and also houses for the governor and officers. It is hard for us today to realise the size as only one gate, or port, remains on the west side of Dock Street, but the area covered was Dock Street, Coburg Street, Cooper Street, then following the line of the old 1560 fortifications to what is now Commercial Street. In building the Citadel Monck destroyed the Old Hospice and church of St Nicholas as well as the burial ground of North Leith Parish Church - St Ninians - and there is no doubt that he used the stone from the Old Hospice to build his new Citadel.
