Was down where the Dalquhurn shop at the start of Renton a few weeks ago, there is going to be new housing there but they have dug up the old cobbles and put them to the side, presumably to be used in the new built roads. That is if folk stop nicking them :cry:

Sad :-( why are they doing that then ? Surely they are a "feature", sort of thing the folk in the riverside flats will lap up.
