Pictured here in 1937, is Blantyre ferme Colliery 3. In these excellent, clear photos, miners stand for the camera, groups of people at the colliery offices stand outside, with a boy in the foreground on the left. It makes me wonder how many of these people lived nearby at Fin Me Oot / Caldervale?

Thanks to Alex Rochead who took time to scan in the original photo at such good resolution.
