Royal Mile Edimburgo
L'Upper Bow faceva parte del West Bow, una strada ripida che collegava Grassmarket a Castlehill. Il West Bow ora termina in Victoria Street e alcuni gradini ti portano all'Upper Bow e alla Victoria Terrace, una passerella sul balcone che si trova sopra il vecchio West Bow. La mappa mostra l'attuale tracciato stradale con Upper Bow, West Bow,
Johnston Terrace, Castlehill, e mercato dei prati. La mappa si trova ai piedi dell'arco superiore.
