Old travel Blog photograph of a vintage car and houses on East Station Road in Newport-On-Tay, Fife, Scotland. The town was established near the endpoint of one part of a ferry route that itself was started in the 12th century. Thomas Telford built a new harbour in the 1820s, and the town expanded and grew into a commuter suburb of Dundee as the prosperous jute manufacturers, industrialists and the middle and upper working class of Dundee established fashionable residences in Newport. The Fife Coastal Walking Path passes through Newport-on-Tay. The area itself is surrounded by views of the two railway bridges that cross the River Tay and distant views of the Scottish Highlands.
