EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity of Edinburgh Dock in Leith, Scotland during the 1930s. The image focuses on Sheds 4 and 5 of the Leith Dock Commission, which were fitted with nearly 100 Kinnear rolling metal shutters in total. The industrial buildings, with their imposing structures and intricate metalwork, stand as testament to the thriving trade and commerce that once dominated this coastal area. The Kinnear rolling metal shutters, manufactured by the Gibson Company, were a common sight in Scottish docks during this era. Their use was essential for protecting the goods stored within the sheds from the harsh elements, ensuring their safekeeping until they could be transported to their final destinations. The shutters were also an effective deterrent against theft and vandalism, adding an extra layer of security to the premises. The buildings in the photograph are adorned with various signs and markings, indicating the diverse range of imports and exports that passed through the Edinburgh Dock. The cranes and other machinery visible in the background suggest that the sheds were used for the handling and processing of various goods, from raw materials to finished products. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into Scotland's industrial past, showcasing the vital role that the docks played in the country's economy during the 1930s. The use of Kinnear rolling metal shutters was a testament to the innovative solutions that were developed to protect and secure the valuable cargo that passed through these bustling ports.
