<p>The Old College, by David Rhind (1808-1883), opened as Daniel Stewart?s Hospital for 50 destitute boys in 1855. In 1870 the Edinburgh Merchant Company turned the Hospital into a fee-paying day school and changed the name to Daniel Stewart's College. The old courtyard at the north side of the building was eventually roofed over and this reopened in 2007 following the creation of a new Performing Arts Centre. Other rooms of particular interest include the Library, formerly the Chapel and the Principal's Study.</p><p> </p>
