An Overgrown Old Road, Bathgate
This mysterious old road once went the short distance from Edinburgh Road to the other side of the railway line via a bridge, then petered out. The white house ahead sits on the far side of Edinburgh Road and the now demolished bridge is behind camera.
It appears on the first OS map of the 1850s, when both sides of the railway were farmland, so presumably it was there to allow the farmer(s) to move livestock across the railway. The current bridge buttresses look more modern though, which in itself isn't that unusual. However, since the road never really appears to have gone anywhere in particular, it seems a little odd that upgrades were made. In the 1890s the road is merely shown as a bridge, joining up with nothing on either side, and in the 1940s - its possible heyday - once South of the railway it turned into a track leading to sand pits.

A bin-bag
The simple ideas are always the best ones. But it remains to be seen whether this additional bag is the result of a brainwave to stop heavily-used bins from being stuffed with rubbish until they overflow, or is a sign of future council service cuts.
The unattended rucksack belongs to me, incidentally.
