Whilst open to motor traffic, Candleriggs is not really car-friendly having been converted to a sort of chicane by traffic-calming plant troughs. It's as well to remain cautious though, taxis and Ubers will use anything legal to cut their journey times... At lunchtime, the sun (if it is shining at all) illuminates the front of Ramshorn Kirk, now a theatre but formerly St. Paul's and St. David's Church. Cafés on the left give the opportunity to sit and have lunch whilst the clouds roll in, giving a welcome reduction in contrast for afternoon photography later.
