The location of the old St John's Cross (now said to be outside Canongate Kirk).  Whilst the location is said to be marked by a white St John's Cross, the paint had almost been worn away, and if I hadn't seen similar circles of pavers in other locations, might not have recognised the spot.  Having spotted the circle, a closer look around revealed the plaque describing the cross on an adjacent wall

Description
The location of the old St John's Cross (now said to be outside Canongate Kirk). Whilst the location is said to be marked by a white St John's Cross, the paint had almost been worn away, and if I hadn't seen similar circles of pavers in other locations, might not have recognised the spot. Having spotted the circle, a closer look around revealed the plaque describing the cross on an adjacent wall in deep shadow on the south side of Canongate.
