Portobello  Open Air Pool

The Pool

Thank you to Miles Cumming for sending me the photograph above.

This view looks to the east along the Firth of Forth towards the coast of East Lothian.

Portobello funfair and the kilns from the old pottery works are in the foreground.

This is one of several photos taken by Miles after the closed.

All the photos were taken on September 26, 1985.
