Archaeology Notes

NS98SW 62

Various features of the Forth and Clyde Canal at Grangemouth photographed by J R Hume 8th July 1967. The descriptions accompanying the photographs are not specific enough to afford proper identification - there is more than one swing bridge at the mouth of more than one timber basin, likewise for entrance locks - and no NGRSs were supplied. Consequently the images were gathered together with the information supplied in the Description field.
