Annie,

Thanks for this.

I'm currently at my desk in work and my view out of the window takes in the whole of Leith!

Thanks for that Annie - an amazing collection of articles. I dipped into a description of Newhaven its history; I remember the last fisher "lass" selling her wares to my mother on her way up town with her heavy creel on her back and a leather strap round her forehead. Does that make me old?    :-\
