Tower block off Duntocher Road
Newly painted with a Noblet dust cart passing on the Duntocher Road. The Dalmuir drop lock in the foreground. It lowers the waterlevel in a pit under the Dumbarton Road, thus getting over the problem of cleaning up after planners who built roads through, rather than over canals they thought would never reopen.

Garage, Dumbarton Road
View from the drop lock on the Forth and Clyde Canal. This was the first time I saw new petrol and diesel prices after a 2p fuel tax rise. It was a bit of a shock as the previous day's price back in East Lothian was around £1.02 per litre. Here it was £1.15.
Soon found out that this was an anomalous price, and running at about 10p a litre more expensive than other filling stations in the area.

Dalmuir Drop Lock
The Forth and Clyde Canal is crossed by the A814, Dumbarton Road (seen on the left). When originally built there was a swing bridge here, but this was removed after the canal had gone out of use. With the revival of the canal a new solution was required to allow boats on the canal to negotiate the crossing.
The answer was the first drop lock to be constructed in the UK. A large lock chamber was built under the road bridge. Boats enter the lock, the lock gates are closed behind them. They then wait until water is pumped out to lower the level enough for them to pass under the roadway. Once they are on the other side the water is pumped back in, the lock gates on the other end are opened and the boat can proceed.
