I’ve absolutely no idea where this photo came from in my files, but I’ve got a questionmark against it whether it is Blantyre or not? For the record, I think it IS Blantyre, perhaps around 1980 or so. I think this is Glasgow Road looking east towards Burnbank and suspect the road leading off to the left is Forrest Street. I’m sure that’s the former petrol station beyond it on the left.
Apologies for the bad scan. The poor quality has previously prevented me putting this up on the page.
