Lanarkshire memories

Grannie's

My memories are of my grandparents staying in their little house on Biggar Road, my sisters and I would walk down a lane which was called the Metal Raw, travellers camped there. We would keep going till we reached my aunty's prefab, other cousins' sisters would walk back and play in Masons slaughterhouse. Our aunt also had a farm on Biggar Road. Happy days. Newarthill was very small at that time, bakers and butchers came in vans to sell their wares.

First Memories

This was the year I was born in what was then seen as Parkside because it was the top half of the village. I was born in Knownoble Street and some of my most earliest memories were of being raised in a three generation household. Then of sneaking through a neighbourghs garden to get to the swing park. Of Scott's Farm where fresh milk came from every day and of Allen's shop where Besty was not only the teacher but the one that kept it running with her Mother. Then when I was a little older I moved closer to Allen's shop on Biggar Road right handy for the bus stop for going to and from School.

Old New Stevenston And Surrounding Villages.....

Iam pleased to have found this website. I lived in New Stevenston for over 50 years and share my memories on Friends Reunited Site...after opening up a group named New Stevenston Born and Bred 50s, 60s and 70s. It also covers surrounding areas. We also hold a lot of photos from down memory lane of villages, schools and landmarks.

Growing Up

I remember the long hot nights when we would all play football down the park till it got dark, the shops on the main street when you could buy any kind of sweets (or nick them if you were skint he,he), the bridge that divided the two halfs of Salsburgh, the club we used to watch our parents in on a Saturday night, thinking it would be great to be in there, and the gala day when if you didn't walk in the parade you never got a bag.

The Village Where I Grew up

I was born in Salsburgh. I moved to England 38 years ago. It has changed a lot since I left with new houses etc. I pass through a few times a year and often wonder how many people I knew still live in the village. It was nice to live in the country with all the fresh air. That's the only thing I miss about the village.
