"Loanhead: downtown near site of former station." View eastward, towards Edinburgh on the A768 at the junction of B702 Station Road. Loanhead station had been close by, on the ex-NBR Edinburgh - Millerhill - Glencorse branch, which closed to passengers 10/9/51 and to goods 18/5/64. The photograph was taken through the windscreen of my car and on the right is part of the large bronze sculpture by Andrew Burton known as the Coghorn, a memorial to miners killed in the town's coal mines.
