The distance from the murder site in Bucks Row, outside Brown's Yard to the front door of 29 Hanbury street is NOT 1000 yards.
It is approximately 1123 yards. This figure is obtained using the Ordinancy Servey maps for the 1870s, 1890s and 1947-1964.
All of which can be found on the website of the National library of Scotland.
The distances are based on a walking route, as the crow flies distances will be in the following post
If people are going to make claims, at least don't make ones that can be knocked down in only a couple of minutes
