Im rubbish at this game, I thought it was Joppa Tennis Courts.

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 17 Feb 2005, 00:15

You'd need to be pretty fit to cover that size of court

CatzVP · Post by **CatzVP** » 17 Feb 2005, 00:53

The club house at Portobello golf course.

Porty · Post by **Porty** » 17 Feb 2005, 10:28

Craigentinny railway yard?

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 17 Feb 2005, 10:40

Is that what it is ? I know it's definitely on Portobello golf course but it's been a while since I've been up that way and thought maybe they'd extended the club house. It would be kinda big though eh?

I walk down there quite a lot - I've no idea what it is. As you say, Teddygirl, it can be seen quite clearly on the edge of the golf course but the clubhouse is the tiny wee speck over the road from it.
Has Catz tricked us? Has he doctored the image perhaps?

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 17 Feb 2005, 11:00

Oh that would be really sneaky

but he is clever enough to do it.
If I had the time I would take myself up there right now and check it out.

I'll bet he keeps us hanging on all day to find out.

Porty · Post by **Porty** » 17 Feb 2005, 11:24

You mean there is a chance that I am correct?

You are

In Catz's absence have a try at this:

Well,I still found it first even if I did get the name of it wrong. Silly name that....it's nowhere near Craigentinny

TG try naming the biggest thing you can see on the picture

Wangi. WTF is that?

Could it be one of the things that stick up out of the sea? Its soooooo difficult to make out.

Oh, it's on land... and a good fair few thousand years old

Maria · Post by **Maria** » 17 Feb 2005, 13:51

Noticed those circles on the fields off the bypass. Are they round the bottom of pylons?

Or is it a marking in Quarry Park Wangi?

ecm · Post by **ecm** » 17 Feb 2005, 15:22

I'm sorry Porty and Wangi, but the previous location can't be Craigentinny Depot.

Whatever this thing is, it's right on the first fairway of the Golf Course and separated from the Railway by a road and a bank of trees.
There is definitely no building like that there now and I don't think this image is that old so what the hell is it???

This is driving me mad.

Post by **wangi** » 17 Feb 2005, 15:51

Hmmm...

The long thin building to the north of it is def railway related...

ecm · Post by **ecm** » 17 Feb 2005, 15:58

Yes - that building is the Craigentinny Wheel Lathe.

I have no idea what a wheel lathe is but that's what the sign in front of it says.

MrSpoon · Post by **MrSpoon** » 17 Feb 2005, 18:05

Oh wait a minute - I used to walk home from school that way, and for a year or so there was a big development going on in the golf course there - no idea what they were doing, but the area was completely dug up - it looked like they were putting an underground bunker!

I guessed it had something to do with water, but that's all I can suggest :s

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 17 Feb 2005, 18:06

Haven't had much time to try and locate Wangi's image but it isn't jumping out and hitting me that's for sure.

Porty the biggest thing I can see on the picture is the North Sea. Depends how you define "thing" though

Im talking about the railway pic, my bad.

CatzVP · Post by **CatzVP** » 17 Feb 2005, 19:27

Well done Mr S

I may be wrong on this one

But the answer is.... The Road works and digging up/dumping/building of the first hole on Portobello Golf course that stopped me taking a short cut for nearly a year!!

So there could be Points all round for this one TG, Porty and Mr S

I donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t know what they were sinking in either Mr S but it looks ominous!! Maybe someone who golfÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s at Porty live nearby can tell us or find out for us!!

Wangi, one of the places you visited on your walk?? That is pretty cool..... I wouldn't have guessed that it was one...

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 17 Feb 2005, 19:48

Gee,I'm glad we've got that one sorted out. It's difficult when you know a place but haven't been there for a while and suddenly a big thing like that appears out of nowhere.
I know now that saying it was the club house was pretty daft but come on, it was first thing in the morning and I had been on the Punch last night

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 17 Feb 2005, 20:13

Well Wangi it is a circle in a field up behind Gilberstoun way but what kind of circle?
