An unusual view showing the car turntable on board the Fifie.
Two toilet flush pull chains from local plumbers, Betsworth and Barlow who operated between 1894-1970s and James Jack and Sons, 1880-1980.
Early days in the road bridge construction with the temporary bridge barely half-built. In stormy weather the temporary bridge was a godsend, allowing some work to continue in all but the worst weather.
Photo of the unveiling of the Newport, Wormit and Forgan War Memorial on 2 September 1922 by Sir Ralph Anstruther, Lord Lieutenant of Fife. Designed by Sir Robert Lorimer, it holds the names of 84 men from Newport, Wormit and Forgan who died in WWI.
Memories from Stewart Montgomery It was Royal Buildings which started the old memory cells ticking away. It's likely that what I'm about to say is, in the main, well documented in your records but I'll continue anyway. I arrived in Newport in 1963 at the age of 14 and until I was 21 I lived at ...
This photograph shows the purpose built premises for the local GP practice, just after completion in 1977.
This photograph shows the waiting room in the purpose built premises for the general practice in Victoria Street which opened in 1978.
Although only built 12 years earlier, the premises at Victoria Street were insufficiently large for the growing needs of the practice, and in 1989 the building was extended.
View from Victoria Street towards Kilburn.
An early view probably from early 1900s looking from Victoria Street towards Kilnburn. On the left is Darvel Lodge, so called because James Morton who had it built in 1888, came from the village of Darvel in Ayrshire. Before Darvel Lodge was built, this was the site of the Tayfield Smithy.
View from East Newport Station, probably around 1900. Taken before footbridge was built (1902), and Mars training ship is out on the river.
A familiar view towards the river from above the East Station. The footbridge over the railway was erected in early 1900s so the photograph pre-dates that. The Mars training ship is just visible in the haze.
Lovely view looking upriver from Gowrie Hill above Woodbine Terrace. Painting by Harry Vincent.
An early picture of the view from Newport to Dundee (undated). A small pillared building is also visible in the picture of the pier showing the steamship Union.
Rather blurred but great photograph for showing the view from Windmill Park.
View from the river of Boat Road pier area. On the right is the old mission hall, originally the granary for the St Fort Estate. On the left is one of the original sea mills, and up above is Seamills House, no longer there.
View of bridge from above West Newport. The bridge's progress could be followed from every viewpoint in Newport.
View over Victoria Street and beyond. Railway line is seen but no medical centre. On the right is the tall, slender spire of St Fillan's Church and on the left the squat tower of St Thomas' stands out.
A view through the tall columns at south end of the bridge, with the two very small figures giving an idea of scale.
View from East Newport to West Newport.
View Towards East Newport from the river.
A view towards East Newport from the Fifie during World War II, taken by one of the Norwegians based at Woodhaven. Apart from Royal Buildings, St Fillan's Church and spire, the granary, the burgh yard and the Braes clear of vegetation, the view would be much the same today.
A view towards Newport pier and Boat Road from the Fifie, taken by one of the Norwegians based at Woodhaven during World War II. Much of Boat Road is dominated by J T Young's garage, but the third building from the left, sandwiched between two parts of the garage, is the Chapel House. The Chapel ...
View upriver from East Newport station.
