Low tide at the waterfront of the coastal village of Johnshaven, Scotland. The flax industry, sailmaking and fishing have historically been an integral part of the life and economy. #LikeALocal #OnTheRoad

Site of former Johnshaven station, 2002. View eastward from New Road bridge, towards Inverbervie: ex-NBR Montrose - Inverbervie branch. The station was probably behind me: it and the line (parallel to Back Road) were closed to passengers 1/10/51, to goods not until 23/5/66. The track-bed seems to have been restored for recreational purposes.
