Did you know ... box beds used to be a common feature of pre-19th century tenements.

These sleeping compartments were sometimes built into recesses or cupboards within the walls. A common feature in Edinburgh tenement flats, they made it easy to heat sleeping areas efficiently and gave a little more privacy.

Box beds might be enclosed by sliding or hinged panels, creating a compact space within a larger room. Surviving examples are rare, but those that still exist are considered important historic interior features.
