Introduction

I had planned to talk about a few Edinburgh districts before move on to Broughton.  See the links at the top of this page.  However, I appear to have enough material on Broughton to keep us busy for well over an hour, so I'll just refer briefly to the other districts then move on and look at some of the Broughton topics.

I'll leave the rest for another time, or for you to find on the Internet.  I added the talk to my web site this morning. 
To find it:
GO TO
www.edinphoto.org.uk then look at 'Latest Updates' (or 'Previous Updates') for 9 Feb 15

                        OR do a  search on Google for Edinphoto Broughton Talk.

 

Update

We had a full evening with questions yesterday.  Thank you to all who made the arrangements at Broughton History Society.  In fact, I only managed to show just over half the photos.  These are the pages that were not shown.  If you'd like to see them now, please click on these links below:
