Laird's Weir

by Ian Nelson 21 August

My first Ardrossan memories were of Stanley Road in the early 1950s.  We stayed opposite the Mausoleum and Graveyard just where Sandro's Chippie was built. It was too small for a church but may have been a family chapel but it was ruined even in the mid fifties.

Memories, Nostalgia & History

History doesn't have to be in black & white

Your memory of a local character or a school photo from the last ten years can be just as interesting as wars and Victorians.
