Rough Seas
Before I traveled to China we decided to explore the East Lothian coast nearer to Edinburgh. Our first stop off point was the beach near the Prestongrange Industrial Heritage Museum near Prestonpans.
The wind was pretty strong and this meant the sea was a little on the rough side. The legacy of the old industrial site were everywhere to see and artifacts from the old harbour, which is now filled in, can be seen everywhere, like this concrete block.
Prestongrange is a free museum - managed by East Lothian Council Museums - and an open-air site of major importance in the story of Scotland's Industrial Revolution. It was the location of a sixteenth-century harbour, a seventeenth-century glass works, eighteenth- and nineteenth-century potteries and a nineteenth/twentieth-century coal mine and brick works.
