Thanks to Jim Cochrane for sharing this picture. Taken recently, Jim mentioned that many of the Calderside fields still utilise the old stone gate posts.
It may be this very simple, understated feature that gives Calderside the feeling of holding on to its old charm.
On social media:
Janet Cochrane Before the metal gate was fitted three would have been two wooden spars which went across and slotted into the stone pillars
The Blantyre Project i hope these pillars around Calderside and Auchentibber last a long time. It feels old with them left in place.
