The artist’s viewpoint is from the Cornton area, looking across the Forth to what was Winshel Place at Laurencecroft (now Drip Road) in the late nineteenth century. All of the little vernacular buildings, some with red pantiled roofs, were swept away by new local authority housing at Laurencecroft and the rest of Raploch in the twentieth century. The magnificent tenement at the south end of the Old Bridge was demolished in 1963.
