Old Photograph Rowanburn Scotland

Old photograph of Rowanburn located near Canonbie, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. This Scottish village was founded as a coal mining community in the late 19th century to house miners from the Canonbie coalfield. The coal mines are now closed. To the south is the Riddings Viaduct, a nine span railway viaduct built in 1864 for the Border Union Railway.
