The former house of Bowes Hill, one of three on the western side of Thornhill Avenue (part of the Dandy)
Apologies for poor quality of this photo. The house was former property of Doctor Bryce and in later years in the 1930s, the Stewart family of contractors.
Priory House and Boweshill are demolished and now Manus Duddy Court occupies the space. More beautiful properties now gone. What can you tell me about this house?
My mum recently passed away. I noticed on her birth certificate that she was born at 10 Thornhill Avenue, Blantyre in November 1946. Does anyone have any pictures of the property ? I know that my grandmother worked as a housekeeper at a big house when she was young, but I don’t know if if was one of the ones on “ The Dandy “
