The North School. Played fitba on the wee grass bit to the right hand side. Also attended a 16 week painting and decorating course before I left school, one of the best things I done in my school years, saved me a fortune.

Excellent pic.  New for me.

 

 

Wee Storie Street in the top right.  I think.

Agree wonderful picture. Not sure about Storie Street, close but I think it may be Canal Street.

Canal Street Station and Stow Brae leading to Canal Street.

Huge area for the coal merchants.

Probably what is now Barr Place (dunno what it was then, but not a "Place" - maybe Barr Street). Storie Street would be almost opposite the junction of Stow Brae and Canal Street which is out of the picture at middle-right.

Dunno if my memory is fuzzy or not but I seem to recall that end of Stow Brae (or maybe all of it) being called Station Road when I was a boy.

It's actually Barclay Street that antrin is referring to.

I was thinking that there might have been another street there that doesn't exist now. I think it may have been mentioned on this thread before - the name looks familiar. Surprised antrin got it wrong, after all he remembers the Abbey being built. :whistle
