Re photo of Storie Street 1954. From the bottom left corner is the pub that was well supported

by the Farmers on market days.  After the pub, was that the side entrance to Priorscroft Bowling Club?

Noticed a garden plot type set up at the end of Underwood Road last week, near the roundabout, looked new? 

It's been there a few months.

is it a council thing or private? 

Only glanced as I drove past, looks like lots of raised wooden, erm, no sure what you'd call them.

Definitely not Priorscroft Bowling Club which is in East End Park off Cochrane Street.

It's called an Allotment.

Was previously sited in Sutherland St but moved as the Cooncil needed the land for an other purpose.

4 Moncrieff St 1947.

Now, I know a wee bit of Moncrieff St still exists (it's the wee stub of a road off Love St which allows access to the car park sitting between Love St and Back Sneddon St) but I just can't place this. The spire in the background might be the Oakshaw Trinity?
