Kim Traynor replied: West Montgomery Place "The end of the tenement block behind the tree in this photo is the back of West Montgomery Place and you’ve photographed my grandparents’ house. Yes., the chauffeur for Menzies ended up living here (at No.4) in the 1940s, just before I came on the scene in the 1950s" Kim Traynor, Tollcross, Edinburgh: November 16, 2009 |
