At our meeting on October 6th we showed the Firth of Forth Branch tape slide talk �Going Forth� made in the late 1980s. Our commentators took us down both sides of the 40-mile long navigable seaway. They gave us an insight of the history of the many inlets, harbours, piers and quays with the aid of maps and old photographs. The variety of commodities handled over the years ensured that no ones favourite ship type was neglected. Our thanks to the Firth of Forth Branch for their research and inclusion of many rare photographs of ships from the past, all adding to a very nostalgic evening. |
