looking to the east along Cowgate. The pile of rubble in the
centre of the picture is the fallen front wall of the Gilded
Balloon. The tall light building in the upper centre stands
on the east side of South Bridge. The building opposite it
on the west side of South Bridge previously stood immediately in
front of it when viewed from this position, but was destroyed in
the fire. |
