Description
Port Hamilton on the Union Canal, Edinburgh. The banks of the canal are paved with stone cobbles and many handcarts are lying around. Large barrels and sacks can also be seen as well as gas lampposts. A group of rundown buildings and a factory chimney can be seen on the far shore. Two men are pointing and discussing the buildings. In the background tenement housing can be seen.
