Thank you to Ian Scott, Hazelmere, Buckinghamshire, England, for allowing me to reproduce this photo that he took some time around the mid-1980s. Here, we look down on the large traffic island in Leith Street, at the top of Broughton Street.. Here, we to the NW from Calton Hill. - The hills of Fife, the Firth of Forth and three towers of Granton Gas Works can be seen in the background. Two of these towers have now been demolished. - The buildings on the far side of this roundabout are in Picardy Place. - The extension of John Lewis on the left-hand side of the roundabout has still to be build - The Omni entertainment centre on the near side of the roundabout have still to be built. |
