Lower Granton Road

close to Granton Square

Looking west

The card was posted in 1917.

The view looks to the east along Lower Granton Road from a point near Granton Square.  The railway from Granton Harbour to Trinity station, about half a mile to the east, runs behind the fence on the left, with Granton Eastern Harbour further left, beyond the railway.

Looking south-west

The houses in the distance in the photograph above can also be seen in this view from Granton Harbour.
