Discover the Beating Heart of Gorgie and Dalry
In celebration of Heart of Midlothian Football Club’s 150th anniversary, the Maroon Mile Project was born—an ambitious heritage initiative funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. This inspiring project shines a light on the social, economic, and sporting legacy of Gorgie and Dalry, the proud home of Hearts for generations.
From the roar of Tynecastle Park to the quiet memories shared in stairwells, shops, and streets, this publication captures the voices of those who have lived, loved, and worked in the shadow of the famous maroon. Through personal stories gathered for the project’s oral history archive, it weaves together generations of passion, perseverance, and pride.
Beginning at the Haymarket War Memorial and ending at Tynecastle Park, the Maroon Mile walking trail invites readers to explore a living history—one of triumph, community, and resilience.
The Maroon Mile celebrates not just a football club, but the people and place that make Hearts truly unforgettable.
