The Goth
The Gothenburg, just off Queensferry Road, Rosyth. A few years on from Image, the taxis and recycling bins are still there. Gothenburgs (Goths) appeared in the early 20th century as a cultural and community hub for industrial, usually mining communities. The pub would share some of its profits with the community for cultural and educational purposes. The model was imported from the Swedish city.
