The photograph was taken near the spot where Image was taken, but is a view in the opposite direction. A road can be seen branching off to the left, leading into an area of housing called Reilly Gardens. At that point, some plaques can be seen on the wall (although they are not visible in the photograph). One simply bears the name "Reilly Gardens", but another one located just above it explains the name, as follows: "This development is dedicated to Dr. Thomas Reilly, M.C., K.St.J., M.B., Ch.B., born 29th July 1906 the son of a Greenhill stationmaster in recognition of his service to his country and community." [Another plaque notes that these plaques were unveiled in 1996 by the Provost of Falkirk Council.]
