Galashiels roofscape
A mixture of roof types in Thistle Street, Meigle Street, Lintburn Street, Scott Street and Gala Park, viewed from Eildon Street on the southwest side of the town. A recent housing scheme on Blaikie's Hill is centre left in the background and the field to the right below the mast on Wester Hill, is zoned for future housing. The small white blob on the hillside on the upper left is a protest sign about the Tesco superstore development in the town, but I doubt if many folk will see that up there. See Image

Roof tops in Galashiels
Viewed from Eildon Street on the southwest side of the town, this shows various roofs on houses in Thistle Street, Victoria Street, Lintburn Street and Gala Park. The houses beyond were built in the 1980s on the former Ladhope Estate. The building in the background centre left is the clubhouse for Galashiels Golf Course, see Image The course is very hilly, especially the second nine holes, as can be appreciated by the 10th hole going up by the wall on the right. Hard on the lungs going up and hard on the knees coming down, but the views from the top on a good day are worth the effort.
