Lasswade Viaduct |
Thank you to Donald Grant, Penicuik,
Midlothian, Scotland for taking the photograph above.
The photo was taken in an attempt
to discover whether or not a viaduct in the background of this
early photo by James Pike
might be Lasswade viaduct.

Conclusion
The viaduct in the Pike photo is not
Lasswade. As Donald says:
"The terrain around Lasswade viaduct is a fairly
steep-sided valley. In Pike's print, there is nothing behind the
viaduct above the parapet, which really rules out Lasswade."
