Nostalgic memories of Brechin's local history

Share your own memories of Brechin and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

I have fond memories of the Worthies who played in Brechin band, most of who have now passed away. Uncle Dod was great at the band parties and always lead Ogrady Did. The band has had many highs and lows but still goes on due to a number of dedicated older members along with the juniors. Does anyone remember when the gas works flooded and we went out to gather the coal? It's a pity it's not there now as cheap fuel would be more than welcome.
