Dist:0.7km<br/>Work is in progress to lay new paving in George Street, which is fully pedestrianised. It is mainly occupied by the same chain shops as every other small town main street in the country.

Dist:0.7km<br/>View across the plaza called The Steelyard in Bathgate, with the spire of St David's church on George Street showing above the roofs of the shops on King's Street. Built in 1904, the church is now used for some commercial purpose. See also close-up shot at [[2627742]].

Dist:0.7km<br/>View SE, towards Bathgate Upper. The station, on the branch to Bathgate Upper from Blackstone Junction on the Monklands Railway (Kirkintilloch - Causewayend), had been closed to passengers on 1/5/30, but Bathgate Lower remained open for Goods until 28/10/63 and the line was still used from Blackstone Junction until 1/5/67 and to Bathgate Upper until as late as 3/9/73. This explains the shiny rails in this picture taken in September 1962.

Dist:0.7km<br/>The inscription on the elaborate canopy reads, "Presented by Mrs McLagan of Pumpherston in commemoration of the opening of the Bathgate Water Works, 30th May 1878". Nowadays, of course, health and safety policy dictates that the fountain is purely ornamental.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Despite appearances this is not an especially old building, having been built in the 19th century. It is part of a Category C(S) group of listed buildings.
