Demolition  -  1980

When I added this aerial view, looking up Leith Walk, to the web site recently, I mentioned that I did not know when the Manderston Street bridge had been demolished.

Thank you to Steve Chambers for providing the answer (September 1980) and for allowing me to reproduce his photograph above, taken during the demolition.

Note for Steve Chambers

Hi Steve.

Thank you for your emails, and for the photo above.  I have tried several times to send replies to your emails, but unfortunately all my attempts have been returned to me undelivered.  If there is a different email address that I should be using to contact you, please email me to let me know.  Thank you.
