Old Travel Blog Photograph Wester Close Newhaven Scotland


Old travel Blog photograph of houses and fishwives on Wester Close in Newhaven in Edinburgh, Scotland. This Scottish village played a part in the birth of photography. David Octavius Hill and Robert Adamson did many studies of the fishwives of Newhaven. A close, is a Scots term for alleyway, although they may be individually named close, entry, court, or wynd.
