A black and white historical photograph capturing a horse-drawn carriage parked beside a stone structure in Edinburgh. The driver, wearing a formal coat and hat, sits upright with reins in hand, while a young man is seated at the back. The street is lined with historic buildings, including a sign advertising John Knox’s House. The image showcases cobblestone streets and intricate period architecture, likely from the early 1900s.

Another historical gem I found—probably taken by the same photographer. At first, I thought it was from the 1870s, but the early 1900s seems more likely.

A historical black-and-white photograph of John Knox House and the surrounding area. People dressed in late Victorian or early Edwardian attire walk along the cobbled streets, while children gather near a cart vendor selling fish and chips for 2 pence. The storefronts display old signage, capturing a glimpse of daily life from a bygone era.

John Knox House and the surrounding streets are frozen in time. No known author or exact year—any guesses based on the fashion?
