Aerial view Fountainbridge circa 1920 before Edinburgh Basins were drained. Port Hamilton can be seen at thetop of the photograph. The simple lifting bridge in the mid right of the photograph has yet to be replaced by the Leamington lidting bridge iwhich is still at its original site in Fountainbridge at the time of this photograph. The curved section of the canal at the top tight is Lochrin basin where the canal now terminates.
