Reid's Court, Canongate, c 1890-c 1910

 Item — Box: Box 1 of 7
Identifier: Coll-1167/B/26/5/17

Scope and Contents

Reid's Court from within the court looking north and north-east. A group of children stand at the end of the shadow cast by a building. Previous cataloguers (1990s) have tried to arrange the pictures so that they form a logical sequence, but the order in which they were photographed is almost impossible to establish. As this image shows the east side of Reid's Court, it could have been taken from the south west, but it is uncertain. Handwritten title by Alasdair Geddes.
