Yikes! Mines.
Persimmon never mentioned that
I'm on Glenmuir Dr and a "new" resident to the area and in fact I only recently heard we have a common aqaintance in my neighbours.
Pgcc93 has a couple of good black n white aerial photos taken of the same spot from way back, prior to the station being built.
The old mines thing may be a good point of source re reading up about the areas past, I know theres a web site dedicated to glasgow mines and owners so I'll look into that.
Sorry to go off topic everyone but Al, whats the significance of the Darnley Tree? our eldest who was 9 at the time said "it's an important tree" pressed upon as to why, she said "I dont know, it a bit like god, you've just got to believe in it"
Not paying attention to the teacher me thinks.
