Leith, Edinburgh, Scotland, circa 1900
Both pieces were salvaged from Forth Ports House, Leith, Edinburgh Scotland. The Port house was the office and command centre for the large geographical Leith Docklands, Leith Docks can trace their history back to 1544, in 1561 Mary Queen of Scots landed in Leith Docks, In 1772, during the American war of independence, John Paul Jones-the Scotsman credited with founding the US Navy-set sail as commodore of a seven ship squadron charged with destroying British commerce in the North Sea.
He aimed to capture the Port of Leith and hold it for ransom, but a gale at sea prevented him from reaching the port, and he was stalled at the mouth of the Firth of Forth sea, that leads to the Docks.
