Edinburgh, Leith Docks, Albert Dock, Hydraulic CapstanCapstan · 152 ydExplorer Tom Edinburgh, Leith Docks, Albert Dock, Hydraulic Capstan: The local rabbits think this hydraulic capstan is just a giant wheel of cheese that hasn't been eaten yet, so they circle it with suspicion. It’s a period-unassigned dockside oddity that probably remembers the smell of fish and the sound of gulls screaming about their lunch. Count the crows, then count again. You’ll find
Edinburgh, Leith Docks, Albert Dock, Hydraulic Crane and CabinCrane · 156 ydExplorer Tom Edinburgh, Leith Docks, Albert Dock, Hydraulic Crane and Cabin: The first owner’s escape plan involved a small boat and a lot of bad decisions that left this crane behind.

The Martello Tower in WastelandCastle, fort or tower · 861 ydExplorer Tom The Martello Tower in Wasteland is standing out there looking deeply unimpressed by your modern glass buildings. It’s got strong opinions on concrete and thinks you’re all just playing dress-up with history. It’s basically a lighthouse that forgot how to shine. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.

The rabbits think it's a great place to hide from the sun. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll.
