Part of Bonnington Falls on the Clyde

Photograph of a waterfall cascading over rocks on the right of the foreground. The water falling over the rocks meets the Clyde river that runs diagonally on the left from the foreground to the background. Trees border the river.

Bonnington Falls or Linn, are part of a collective of four waterfalls known as the Falls of Clyde. Together with the Bonnington Falls, these comprise Stonebyres Linn, Dundaff Linn and Corra Linn which is the largest of the four. The falls are a popular destination for tourists and have also attracted the attention of poets and writers over the years. This photograph is a carbon copy of the original albumen photograph. Carbon was a process that was less susceptible to fading, unlike an albumen print that is prone to discolouration over time.
