Western Harbour, Leith
Western Harbour, Leith
The outer breakwater beyond has been greatly widened since. A view today would show serviced apartments and a Premier Inn on the reclaimed land.

Taken from HMY Britannia with Fred Olsen Line's Black Prince in foreground. In the 1970s Black Prince used to sail as the Venus under Bergen Line management during the summer months between Newcastle and Bergen

Thought to have been taken in summer of 2003 when Britannia had been moved away from the Ocean Terminal temporarily.
