  1. A massively important historical building to Paisley and Scotland, even the UK...that rarely gets a mention. Didnae think you could go into it any more...you'll end up getting the jail Sonny. Should be a special Buddie award for the folk that rebuilt it - that widnae huv been cheap.

    Private residence.

  2. Thanks Pod and Eddy for the additional info on the Hamilton Fountain (PICTURE 44).

    Pod - I think the barmaid was called Sarah but it was a long time ago. She was blond but not overly big smile.png

    As no-one has yet identified PICTURE 45 I shall leave it for now - first time a Picture has not been identified in 24 hrs although Pod believes he knows it.

    PICTURE 46 CLUE is ....

    (PS If PICS dont appear for a few days this week it is because I am away but dont worry they will continue on my return.)

    You could be right,I think her name was Sarah.Don't think she was from Paisley.

    As for picture 46. Not a place I like visiting or in a hurry to visit personally.

  3. PICTURE 44 was (nearly smile.png ) correctly identified as the Hamilton Fountain located at the junction of Neilston Rd and Calside. Besides its name I know nothing about it and in my (limited) research I could find no further info. There is wording on the monument but its now pretty illegible. Would be nice to know a wee bit more about it.

    Blackland Mill(bleaching mill) was close to the bowling ground(of same name) on Braehead Road.
