Martin, thank you for sharing all of these films - many memories evoked. I was born and grew up in Camdean Crescent and my grandparents lived at 6 Fraser Road (the Harty's). It was a sad day when they had to move out of the bungalow and into a one-bedroomed flat opposite the Co-op.
Lived at 86 Fraser Road when I was younger, with my parents. Next door was Bill & Peggy Welch. Had to move out when I was 15. Great sense of community up there. Dad had one of the wooden garages next to the air raid shelter.
When you come to the bottom of Lowry Road you join Talbot Road not Alexander Road. When you drove up Castle Road the first left was Talbot Road which stretched along past Lowry, Hamilton to the small roundabout at the bottom of Burney Rd, kinked slightly left then it was Alexander. I was born at no 7 Talbot Road and lived there till 1967.
Brill..got to agree with the last comment about the community ...it was fantastic we lived in Ramsey Road, some of the names in the street ,Nichol, Niven ,Grant, Yeo..there vwas nothing more daring than jumping off the flat roof!
