Postcard: East Newport and the Pier Lovely clear view of East Newport and the pier. Possibly the ferry Dundee at the pier, and beyond the ferry pier, the old pier is still quite intact. The granary and other buildings around the old pier are clearly seen and of course the gasworks chimney is prominent. In the distance the old Royal Buildings ... Newport Pier 2020 There may no longer be ferries arriving and departing, but the pier is still a hive of activity with David and Liz Anderson's marine services and supplies business. Police and Motor Bike at Pier 1930s The local sergeant keeping an eye on the Ariel motor bike and side-car driver. In the background the old public telephone box. Although the familiar red telephone box was designed in 1924, it was only in the late 1930s that it became widespread, and it clearly hadn't reached Newport at the time of this photograph. Policeman at Pier 1930s The first shop in the parade of shops in the pier buildings was a police office, so there was always a police presence at the pier. The car seems to be heading off, and on the other side of the road a car parked outside the post office and an approaching bus are just visible ... Seamills Smiddy Lovely painting of the Seamills Smiddy done by Robin Don. TheĀ Dons were the last blacksmiths to work in the smiddy. Provost Scrymgeour at Pier Photograph showing Provost Scrymgeour (Provost 1934 - 1937) immediately opposite the ferry pier. The crowd is clearly waiting for someone or something, but will we ever know what it was. Could be someone important arriving or departing by the ferry, or perhaps someone driving through. View from Newport to Dundee 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. The Local Constabulary at the Pier, 1930s Photograph of a police sergeant and police countable at Newport Pier, c. 1930s.

Framed Photo of the Braes, old Granary and Pier, Newport Photograph (framed) of the Braes, granary and old pier in Granary Lane or Gas Lane at that time. Dundee Fire Brigade at Newport Pier Postcard showing Dundee fire brigade arriving by ferry at Newport Pier. View of Pier Area from River 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. Boat Brae Parade of Shops Parade of shops in the pier buildings on Boat Brae, probably 1960s. Boat Road 1900s Boat Road in early 1900s. The old mission hall is on the right, originally the granary for St Fort Estate. In the centre on the High Road is John Young's cycle business which would soon expand into the motor business on Boat Road. In the distance is the Chapel House. Arrival of the Ferry, Boat Road 1900s Wonderful photograph showing the arrival of crowds of passengers and carriages coming off the ferry, all apparently dressed in their 'Sunday best'. Pier clock says 3.30. It certainly looks like a special occasion, but will we ever know what it was? Ferry Abercraig at the Pier 1964 Ferry 'Abercraig' at the pier 1964. Road Bridge is under construction in background. Cars Queue for the Ferry on Boat Road 1950s Cars queuing for the ferry on Boat Road, in 1950s. The ferry is already at the pier, and passengers are heading to and from it. Boat Road 1950s Boat Road in the 1950s. A policeman directs the ferry traffic. Two late-comers running to catch it. Ferry traffic and passengers 1950s A busy morning as passengers and traffic queue for the ferry. The pier clock says 8.30 so presumably these crowds are commuters heading for work in Dundee. Excellent view of J T Young's extensive garage business on Boat Road. PAGE: 12Next >
