Elections for the City of Edinburgh District Council took place in May 1992, alongside elections to the councils of Scotland's various other districts.
Labour, which had won control of the Council for the first time ever in the 1984 election, managed to retain its control of the council despite losing the popular vote amid a swing to the Conservatives in the city. The Liberal Democrats were able to capture several new seats in the center of the city; Marchmont, Morningside, and Sciennes. Voter turnout was 48.2%, down 5% from the previous elections.
The Scottish Labour Party is the devolved Scottish section of the UK Labour Party.
Marchmont is a mainly residential affluent area of Edinburgh, Scotland. It lies roughly a mile to the south of the Old Town, separated from it by The Meadows and Bruntsfield Links. To the west it is bounded by Bruntsfield; to the south-southwest by Greenhill and then Morningside; to the south-southeast by The Grange; and to the east by Sciennes. The name derives from the wife of Sir George Warrender who was daughter to Hume Campbell of Marchmont. Marchmont is an archaic name for Roxburgh Castle, a now destroyed royal fortress in the Scottish marches.
