Photos taken from the tram route down

Granton Road

Below are two postcards that I was given for Christmas. 2014  Thank you Jenny.

 They go together as a set, having been labelled 'A' and 'B'.        See the message on the back of these cards.

Peter Stubbs, Edinburgh:  December 27, 2014

Note the large ship berthed at Middle Pier in Western Harbour, and the boatyard at the landward end of Eastern Breakwater

Granton Road with its ornate posts for the tram wires leads straight ahead then round the corner and down the hill to Granton Square.

 Boswall Road, leads to to the right, to  the east, towards Challenger Lodge, now St Columba's Hospice.

Note the large house.  It later became the Royal Forth Yacht Club clubhouse, and is now residential accommodation.

The elm tree to the left is now larger. The old white telephone box is at the top of Wardie Steps in this photo but has since
been removed.  There are now large gates in the wall (behind the man) and the letter box has been moved to the left of these gate.
