From The Top Of Caithness General Hospital Chimney, Wick

Wick river on the left flowing out to Wick Harbour.  In the front is Mackays hotel in Union Street with the shortest street in Scotland being on the end of the hotel Ebenezer Street.  The Wick medical centre is on the left of the picture on the right hand bank of the river.  Across the street from the medical centre is Wick swimming pool.  The Pulteney area near to the harbour may be the site of a major redevelopment to restore ThomasTelford's original vision of that part of Wick. a restoration plan is now well underway with applications for substantial funding in place as at 15 October 2001
