The New Calton burial ground history (12 page pdf) Compare to Old Calton .

 ".. an example of a transitional graveyard, midway between the 18th century grandeur of Old Calton, Greyfriars and Canongate and the new planned cemeteries of Dean and Warriston. Whilst Le Cimetiere de l’Est on Mount Louis in Paris is the true prototype, New Calton can still be seen as an important precursor for the garden cemetery movement in Britain."

Freezing out, but dry enough that there was very little ice. Went up by Leith Street to Regent Road. The graveyard has a splendid view and south exposure. Back by Royal Terrace, which was distinctly chilly, being in the shade and the light wind rather than sun. 

Email exchanges with various contractors; out in the early evening to a Civtech event conveniently at the Zühlke offices in St Andrews Square. Will see if that leads to anything useful.
