Scottish West Port


Scottish West Port. An old view of the West Port, St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. This is one of the few surviving examples of a city gate in Scotland. Its building contract is dated 18th May, 1589. The Port was completely renovated in 1843 when some structural alterations were made. It now consists of a central archway protected from above by battling between two semi-octagonal turrets with gun-loops. On either side across the pavements is an arch of modern construction. Located across the west end of South Street, St. Andrews.
