Viggen Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Deep beneath the cobbled streets of the Scottish capital lies a dank and forgotten realm where prostitutes once rubbed shoulders with body snatchers and the light of day never penetrated.

"There are no written records of who lived in these vaults, although there is ample anecdotal evidence that thousands of people lived and died here, some probably never even seeing the outside world," said tour guide Jim Lennie. full article at Reuters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
