Old Photograph Gates Rosyth Dockyard Fife Scotland

Old photograph of workers cycling out of the gates of the dockyard in Rosyth, Fife, Scotland. It was established in 1909 as the Royal Naval Dockyard Rosyth, played a key role in ship repair in both world wars, and later became a crucial site for the refit and decommissioning of nuclear submarines. Rosyth Dockyard is a large naval dockyard on the Firth of Forth owned by Babcock Marine, which formerly undertook refitting of Royal Navy surface vessels and submarines. Blog post of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
