A-group with Dean Cemetery (see separate listing). 69 Dean Path is a former gate lodge to the Dean Cemetery, with a prominent hipped roof and stack which make a good contribution to streetscape. The lodge marks the entrance to the later phase of development in the Dean Cemetery begun in 1877 by James Jerdan and Sons. The Dean Cemetery is one of the most significant examples of a Victorian cemetery in Edinburgh. The form of the lodge has been broadly retained despite later conversion to form a residential dwelling. It is set closely against the boundary walls to the cemetery and echoes their use of coursed squared rubble with some ashlar dressings.
Split from Dean Cemetery listing and category changed from B to C(S) as part of resurvey (2009).
