Peebles Gasworks [Eshiels]

The rear of the coke discharge shed at the former Peebles Gasworks at Eshiels in August 2010. After discharging their load into the shed's coke drops, the leading wagons would be propelled through the now bricked up arch onto the empties run-out at the north western end of the building. The embankment visible on the right carried the Peebles - Galashiels line see image 30353. The old gasworks site is now a large waste collection and recycling centre.
