Information Seat
Image: © Anne Burgess Taken: 15 Feb 2012
This combined seat and information board stands beside the Union Canal towpath, cleverly designed so that if you sit down you can't read the information, and if you want to read the information you can't sit down. The plaque has, on the left, a plan of the canal in the vicinity of Ratho, and on the right a topographic map showing the contours of the adjacent land. The water surface is 73 metres (241 feet) above sea level.
