Don’t remember seeing this at all. I’m talking mid - late 70s Era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookie Monster Posted March 20, 2023 Report Share Posted March 20, 2023 I don’t remember it myself but I think it was just where Back Sneddon meets North St I take it, it was the car/taxi showroom that was at the footbridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t remember seeing this at all. I’m talking mid - late 70s Era. That was also my route and what we called "shortcut" . Cross footbridge into Wallace Street and instead of walking straight on to Love Street, turned left at junction of Back Sneddon which is where Irvine Caravan Showroom was exactly before turning into North Street. Later became a Plumber Merchants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
