Old road bridge carrying Marischal Street over Virginia Street in Aberdeen - taken shortly before the bridge was demolished and rebuilt across a dualled Virginia Street. Note the Shore Porters' Society removals lorry - their base was here in Virginia Street before being moved to nearby Baltic Place. Established in 1498, the porters [originally pynours] carried goods between the town and harbour. www.aberdeencity.gov.uk
