Harrison Hall
In common with many mining areas, Bo'ness has a tradition of Brass Bands. The Bo'ness and Carriden Band practice here and the strains of well known classics can often be heard on "Band Night".

Starks Brae ( The Links )
Starks Brae Known locally as the Links runs from Grangepans up to Grange terrace.
The wall is the back wall to Ballantines foundry.
Special sand was tipped on the road and then shovelled through the square openings (now bricked up). The sand was used to form moulds which the hot metal was poured into to make cast iron gutters, manholes etc.

Bo'ness Railway Station
This station belongs to the Bo'ness and Kinneil Railway (who run Steam train trips between here and Birkhill Claymine) and was originally the station at Wormit on the southern approaches of the Tay bridge before being brought to Bo'ness by the Scottish Rail Preservation Society when they started this railway. The Railway also includes a museum and fine views of the River Forth.

Bo'ness.
The Railway Museum. Thanks to the Gazetteer information, on this page, I now know what Bo'ness is short for. Can't say that I could blame them for shortening the name.

Bo'ness.
The Railway Museum. As a matter of interest, when I was looking for the square for this Museum site, the Get-a-map site wouldn't accept Bo'ness as a proper location. Am I to assume, therefore, that if I have to look it up again, I will have to type in the full name?

Bo'ness.
The Railway Museum. One would have to assume that, to be able to get equipment of this size into the Museum site, there is still a physical connection to the national rail network - or that there was, then, anyway.

Bo'ness.
The Railway Museum. Although the site was visited on a Friday, which is not a regular Public day, the workers in the Shops, kindly allowed me full rein and let me go where-ever I wanted to. Thank you, Folks.
