Law Incline

Looking down the former Law Incline towards the Somerville Place overline bridge from the top of Drummond Street. The line was in a cutting with sides of dressed stonework and had three rails, one for up, one shared and one down. The grass covers the infilled cutting. The line here opened in 1832 with the extension from the temporary Top of Law terminus to Ward Street/Road. It closed in 1861 with the opening of the deviation via Lochee.
