Is that up at the top of Muirtown locks?..looks like the prefabs there.
Has to be a fair age, there's even anderson shelters used as sheds in the gardens. Great stuff Dave-d, thanks for sharing.You must have some size collection of photo's , ( I lost most of mine along with other things, during moves to Norway and Australia in the 70's - 80's 
).
).
more likely the forth and clyde canal,,,black and white pic,, plus the bowl cut on the young lad,,lol.
another cracker dave of a real fishing photo
Probably more chance of it being the F & C canal if it's in the 50s and the pic certainly looks like that time..wouldnae have seen the "Rawers" using the big canal much back then?
just passed the falkirk wheel
def the 4 th and clyde open again yippee but just for weekend sailors shallow drafts shallow people who bring everthing from home and put nowt back into the economy well done the lottery once again 4 spending our money so wisely could it not have been a bit deeper so that it could have been used 4 fishing boats moving east 2west vice versaas itused 2 be for trade not 4 yuppies who have enough cash 2 cruise anywere they want why was it put there in first place not a tourist attractionbut aworking industrial canal of course the people going 2 the opera this weekend will disagree with my opinion tough
Well said, we are looking at the prospects of taking Christina 2 through from Grangemouth to Bowling, however there are a few bits that look a bit iffy for a 40Ftr with 13+ beam and 6ft draft while gliding at 3kts. We'll let you know the outcome - Maybe!!

Bob if u r doing the forth n clyde u will prob be dredging some of the top reach for em, have u asked about min depth??
i westbob if ur thinking of going through in the christina i believe 2 of the port seton men have been through in small boats prob about 2 ft or slightly moredraft they maybe able 2 help u out with depths etc tom buchanan and archie johnstone both very experienced x fishermen hope ur able 2 make the trip be a good trip especially as ur boat would be an attraction on the clyde as she spent quite a few yr fishing from ardrossan cheers b g
