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. |

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. |

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. |

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. |
