	Longannet Power Station 1280 x 818 276K	Taken in the '70s but not featured here until June 2005 is this picture taken (as far as I can remember) near the village of Skinflats beside Grangemouth. Longannet power station is on the other (North) side of the River Forth.
	Grangemouth Docks 524 x 768 131K	I have no idea of the purpose of this construction, or how it came to be damaged the way it is. Something to do with the Second World War, perhaps.
	Mudflats 738 x 1024 142K	A personal favourite. Taken from near the Kincardine Bridge over the River Forth. This is an updated scan of the original negative. Photographed in the mid to late 1970s. Grangemouth is visible in the distance. Birds' footprints are discernible in the middle foreground.
	Union Canal 800 x 600 112K	One of the families of swans which live on the Union Canal near Polmont. Five cygnets in a straight line.
	Boat 1024 x 768 205K	This passenger-carrying boat leaves from Linlithgow and visits the aqueduct. There's a pleasant walk between Polmont and Linlithgow, too.
	Union Canal 1 1024 x 768 220K	Across the other side of the canal is this large pool. This is on the Polmont side of the aqueduct. Its purpose is presumably for boats to turn round for the return journey to Linlithgow.
	Aqueduct 1024 x 768 122K	This west-facing view shows the Union Canal where the aqueduct carries it over the River Avon.
	Dollar Glen 687 x 768 171K	At the southern edge of the Ochil Hills is the town of Dollar. There's a spectacular walk up the glen, part of which is shown here.
	Castle Campbell 1024 x 696 157K	From the castle at the top of Dollar Glen, is this view down the glen to Dollar.
	Refreshments 1024 x 768 90K	This was taken a few years ago inside the castle. Everything was all ready; you just switched on the kettle and helped yourself. "20p for a cup of tea" says the hand-written notice.
