Help please to date 2 photographs of Munro family in Scotland
« on: Sunday 30 September 18 15:48 BST (UK) »
Hi all,
Hoping that help with dating photos will allow the identities to be worked out from the dates.
These are photos of two shop fronts belonging to the Munro family in Gullane, East Lothian, Scotland.
Thanks for looking.
Ali
PS  These photos belong to a descendent of the munro family who has asked me to post them for dating help.  Full permission given.

I would say they are from the Edwardian era.

Thanks Treetotal for the response.  Could anyone hazard an estimate on which photo might be earlier than the other, or are they pretty much contemporary?

I would say the second one was the earliest.
