A close-up of the 15 miles from Aberdeen granite post on the B993 at the southern end of Port Elphinstone. Why Port Elphinstone when the town is not on the coast? It was one end of the short-lived canal from Aberdeen. It was operative for about 40 years before railways were built. Context view http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6821862.
