Bomb beside Leith Junction Station
©
"Your posting of bomb damage beside Leith
Junction Station, added in December 2014, brought back personal memories
for me of when I used to deliver mail in Leith, as a Student during the
Christmas Holiday’s, and had Largo Place as part of my round.
The bombed-out house on the corner was still a
gap site in 1980-81 when I used to pass it on my round. I knew that
it had been bombed during the war so it was extremely interesting to see
the photographs that you posted."

back, at the top of the current
