We wandered around the old part of the wee town which is at the Fife end of the 1936 bridge
Typical Scots style dormer windows
Pantiles which came from the Nederlands as ship's ballast.
A small public house right at the end of the bridge. There used to be one on the other side too, probably until the ferry stopped and the bridge was built.
Different views of the bridge than we usually get!
You can just see the tower on the bridge..that is one side of the section that used to swivel to allow shipping to pass.
This used to be public toilets...it was on the programme Homes under the Hammer I believe...but it obviously wasn't converted into flats!
As you can see from the name..it used to be an important stopping place for goods inward
A brief visit...I think I will be back again! The place looks a little sad with run down and closed shops...but also good community buildings and enough shops thriving. Every small town suffers from trade being sucked into the big box shops.
