Title
Lawnmarket - showing 91 year old Tom Gilzean collecting for the Sick Kids Hospital
Description
Looking down from Castlehill, the tall buildings of the Royal Mile and West Bow can be seen. The road is partially cobbled and a roundabout is marked at the junction. The St Columba's-by the-Castle Church is on the right at the start of Johnston Terrace. The fencing marks off part of the entrance to the Hub, a venue owned by the Edinburgh International Festival. A sign on the railing reads 'no parking'. A man is sat on a step in a doorway on Castlehill. He holds a red collection tin for charity. Pedestrians walking along the pavements. There are only a few vehicles on the road including a taxi. Tourist shops selling Scottish themed goods can be seen.
