    High Street The Kiosk within the Foyer of the old Picture House on the High Street c.1960's. Most folks who remember the old Cinema will also remember the long walk down the corridor too, but one photo of the place which is proving very illusive is of the Fountain within,

    Its the middle of winter so no pitch is the SPL is perfect as grass goes dormant over this period, anyone who expects a summer billiard board pitch at this time of year is delirious

    hamlet got a reaction from antrin in Paisley - My Pics Of Old Or Unusual Buildings Or Places Of Interest.   
    It crossed the Glasgow Road and headed towards the main Paisley to Glasgow railway track close to the Barbers where the Lion sits above.
    The Lyon family ran a coal merchants business around the railway area and I would guess the family owned the house. In the late fifties Tom Lyon ran a taxi company.
    The typical railway arches are still in place at the bottom of Greenlaw Drive just before the entrance to Kelburne Cricket Club. The track then continued to join the main track at the side of the foot bridge that takes you to Gallowhill Road. Where the houses are at Arkleston Drive was what was called a shunting area.
    At one time there was 8 tracks in use.
    When the circus came to town the animals were brought by train to the shunting yard at Wallneuk before they were paraded to the Racecourse in Greenock Road.
