Gate

Back Blip - time to catch up on these random gaps in my journal!

The Grahamston Gate was made by the Grahamston Iron Works for the Edinburgh International Exhbition of 1886. Weighing nearly 20 tons (according to a nearby information plaque) it is one of the largest ceremonial cast iron arches ever made. It was refurbished and re-erected in its current location in 2002. It was also one of the visual highlights of our Ramblers walk this morning. 

Another bright, warm, suuny day. I could get used to this!
