Old Photographs Paddle Steamer River Tay Perth Scotland

Old photograph of a Paddle Steamer on the River Tay by Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. Most of the pleasure sailings from Dundee were up Firth of Tay to relatively calm waters and hence many of the paddle steamers that plied on the Tay were more in the nature of river steamers The principal ports of call were: Balmerino just a short distance upstream on the Fife shore, Newburgh, a little further in North Fife and of course Perth.
