Arbroath Harbour

Good morning,

Today I’d like to share some images taken of Arbroath Harbour.

I have visited this location a few times now, and when the weather plays ball, it makes all the difference.

The harbour, medieval in origin, was improved by John Gibb in 1838-9 and then enlarged by James Leslie in 1841-46 to contain an area of 2.4 hectares within sea walls of red sandstone.

The old harbour of 1725 was converted into a wet dock in 1877 - the wrought iron gates are now kept open.

Thanks,

Lee
