Title
A perspective view of the front of Heriots Hospital
Description
The towers of George Heriot's Hospital stand behind walls in Edinburgh. The school has a central domed tower with an arched entrance beneath it. The wings on either side end with square towers. Walls section off parts of the grounds in front of the building and many people can be seen standing and talking. The ladies are wearing long, full dresses and the men have tri-corner hats and frock coats.
