Fence Boxes
Maybe I will be credited in the Oxford English Dictionary in a few years time for coining this phrase if it becomes a regular thing in the future. I imagine this isn't the first time this has been done, but it is the first time I have seen it. Fence boxes are like window boxes, but in a fence as opposed to underneath a window! They are so well done here that it is a pity that a lot of the plants in them are dying or dead. But it has been very hot lately, and life always gets in the way of good ideas, as everybody knows.
The tarmacked path leads from the end of a cul-de-sac in Mid Calder that, as was the fashion for a while, changes its name at a certain point along its length. At this point the houses are on Wallace Mill Gardens, which is an extension of Almondside, but the path is just plain old 'Almond Path'. The River Almond flows downstream, looking in this direction, below the railings on the left.
