St Andrews, West Port

St Andrews, West Port
The West Port of St Andrews was built in 1587 as a monumental entrance to the city’s South Street. It was less a defensive structure than it was a symbol of civic pride. Its design is based on that of the Netherbow in Edinburgh – which, in turn, was modelled on Paris’s Porte Saint-Honore. The gate was extensively refurbished in 1843. Quoted from the Historic Environment website

Just through the west port on the left was the Brownies meeting hut. I was in the group called the Scottish Kelpies. Our song was:
We're the little Scottish Kelpies, Smart and quick and ready helpers.
