Built in 1947 by Crawfords Biscuits the warehouse that sits on Anderson Place served as a their home for over 10 years. Having lain empty for the last eight years, we have undertaken to transform the space into a multi purpose arts hub.

Leith’s unique rebirth is an active and dynamic example of a redevelopment of a city in the attempt to realign itself within a global capital.

Its changed landscape during the last ten years promotes an ethereal metropolis developing new prototypes for living & working.

These shifts are critical to these radical transformations and the Biscuit Factory are proud to be part of this exciting time!
