Old Town
View
along Waverly Bridge in 1858, with construction works to create a new
tunnel for the railway immediately ahead.
In
the background, the Old Town of Edinburgh, with the steeple of St Giles
Cathedral on the skyline, behind the smoking chimney on the right.
The
destruction of buildings in the middle-distance is to make way for the
creation of Cockburn Street. |
