Maybury

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Maybury is an area on the western edge of Edinburgh, Scotland, near South Gyle and Ingliston, named after the civil engineer Sir Henry Maybury (1864–1943). Dominated by a major road junction, the most notable feature is the Maybury Roadhouse, built in 1935 and one of Edinburgh's finest examples of Art Deco architecture. It was converted into a casino in the late 1990s. The area is residential in the north east/east and commercial in the south and west. There is also a large Marriott chain hotel here, and the Gyle Centre is nearby.
