Room with a view

Well this was the view from the top of our 90m twin core chimney.
To the right is the iconic 'Dundee Law' - The Dundee Law, which takes its name from the Gaelic word for mound or more likely, from Anglo-Saxon hiil?w (modern Scots law) meaning a (grave-)mound, is the plug of an extinct volcano.

Then the Tay Rail Bridge - The second bridge opened on 13 July 1887 and remains in use. In 2003, a refurbishment project was started and more than 1,000 metric tons of bird droppings were scraped off the ironwork lattice of the bridge using hand tools, and bagged into 25 kilograms sacks.

Next is the Tay Road Bridge - The Tay Road Bridge is a bridge across the Firth of Tay from Newport-on-Tay in Fife to Dundee. At around 2,250 metres (1.4 mi), it is one of the longest road bridges in Europe, and slopes gradually downward towards Dundee.

There is also a large oil rig in dock being refurbished.
