Pictured here around the 1930’s is Mr McGinty of Caldervale/ Finmeoot. Shared by Helen Reilly, she added, “This is my great granddad, Mr McGinty of Caldervale”.
The 1930 valuation roll, i found shows McGintys living at number 10 Caldervale Terrace. The photo shows a rare view of the front of the Caldervale terraced homes. Attached also is a colourised photo of Caldervale taken in the late 1940’s or early 1950s.
1930s Mr McGinty at Caldervale. Shared by H Reilly
1948 Caldervale, nr Blantyre.
Was the children’s home in high blantyre ?
Do you know your Great Grand Dad’s first name?
Hi Thomas, sorry, I’m standing by my post. The McGintys were indeed living at number 10 Caldervale Terrace in 1930 as i mentioned. Also the photo is not 1920s. The electricity pylon in the background was not installed until just after WW2. I’m quite particular about accuracy, so I hope this clarifies.
Where did you get this picture from ?
Hi Tom -The article states who sent in the photo of her family. Cheers.
Caldervale Roll cal 1946, Not 1930.
Caldervale in colour is from the 1920s
