Barony Cross

Barony Housing Association has 360 affordable homes and provides care and support to around 700 people in Central Scotland. Barony was created in the 1960s by a group of volunteers looking to help people who were homeless or at risk of becoming homeless in Edinburgh. In 1971 Barony became a registered housing association. During the 1970s and 1980s Barony also established its Contact Point services that were designed to help people play an active role in their community.
