Tayport Road and Gasworks from Road Bridge

A fabulous and unusual view taken from the road bridge while under construction. On the slope is Northfield farm, and in the distance the chimney of the gasworks. The gasworks moved to this location in 1903 from their position below the High Street. The roadway in front centre is the access track to the construction site, while the main road along to Newport is hidden under the trees front right. On the right centre the ground has been cleared and prepared for the car park.
