East Newport from River
Quite an unusual view towards East Newport, as it focuses on the most easterly stretch of the Braes. The houses on Tay Street between Robert Street and James Street can also be seen. Most interesting however, is the white cottage on the cliff at the left of the photograph. This is Kempstane, a small croft that was demolished in the 1930s. The ground lay empty for some 30 years until a bungalow was built there in the 1960s (now 81 Tay Street). This is quite probably the only photograph that exists of Kempstane.
