A Monkey Puzzle tree and recent snow combine to give this bungalow its strange appearance.
Jolly Farmer

Previously featured in lower quality. Back in 1977, there still was a farm nearby. Whether the farmer was jolly or not is unclear. Rescanned in 2005 with a larger image.
Little France

The new Edinburgh Royal Infirmary is on the left hand side of Old Dalkeith Road at this point. A wet night meant an exposure of a second or two with the camera on a tripod. Rescanned in 2005 with a larger image.
Little France 2

A variation on the previous shot. This time the exposure was longer causing a much longer trail created by car headlights. This area is now rather more urbanised. The hospital has long since displaced the caravan and camping site.

The Inch housing scheme is adjacent to the same A68 road as the previous picture. This shot was taken not far from Cameron Toll.

Photographed from Arthur's Seat. The white building obscured by Craigmillar Castle is Edinburgh Royal Infirmary at Little France. The A7 road carries traffic south past Upper Craigour and Fernieside. More new building work is under way on the south east side of the Niddrie Burn.
