Coronation Day Street Party at 'Hen's Dyke' By Dumbiedykes Road 1953

"Don't know if [Hen's Dyke] was a local nickname! This was an elevated concrete 'green' with steps leading down to Dumbiedykes Road. At the back of the assembled neighbours one can see the awnings of the local co-op stores at the Holyrood end. The brick building at the right-hand side of the picture is the local bleach works." - Jean Bell (née Bottomley)
