Edinburgh

Cramond Brig The bridge was built c.1500, rebuilt 1617-19 and subject to extensive repairs in 1687-91 by Robert Mylne (1633 - 1710), 1761, 1776 and in 1854. It has three arches with massive triangular cut-waters which carry a narrow carriageway between low parapets. A view from upstream, just below the replacement bridge that carries the A90 road over the river

Cammo Park Grazing seems to have stopped in the fields between the lodge and the ruins of the house. There has been a lot of recent tree planting in an attempt to regenerate the parkland landscape.
