Sciennes
Sciennes is an area of Edinburgh, Scotland, just south of the city centre.
To the north lies the eastern end of the Meadows . Newington lies to the east and south. Sciennes shares a Community Council with Marchmont, to the west.
The name is derived from the Dominican convent of Catherine of Siena. The convent was built in 1517 but was destroyed in the Reformation in 1559.
