Dunlaw Street is a short no through street that runs off Herbert Street and is close to Heritage Forest and only a short walk to the Inveresk Precinct.
This land was formerly owned by the wholesale grocers and produce merchants, Law, Duncan and Co. of 130 Cimitiere Street.
Charles R Law of this company lived in Burns Street and John Duncan lived next door, near to the Herbert Street intersection. Dunlaw is a portmanteau name derived from the names of these two men.
