Viewing bays without a view
I don't know what these bays are (there are three in total) or what purpose they could possibly serve. They look like viewing platforms, and whilst the small narrow wood they look out onto is pleasant enough, it could hardly be described as anything special. Plus the view from the walkway - which leads from a footbridge over a railway line to a tarmacked path that leads to a main road - is just the same.
I did have a silly fleeting notion that they might be some kind of horse passing places. There are a great deal of reasons this can't be the case, the main one being that I have never seen a horse walking up or down a flight of steps.

Heading for Edinburgh on the A7066
The A7066 by-passes Bathgate as far as the A801 which reconnects with the A89 at the west end of the town. The gritters were out on this bright but icy December morning.

Boghall
Housing scheme on the east side of Bathgate. The old map just shows hilly farmland. View west.
The houses were built to take in overspill from Glasgow and house the workers for the truck factory, now itself a big new housing project.
