A Memory of Blakelaw.
Lived the top of Craigmillar ave in prefab 1954 to about 1965 when demolished. Sadness for a young boy !Everyone looked out for each other and kids played together across wide age groups.played in the bluebell Woods walked to Ponteland .Attended Hilton school .Blakelaw comprehensive lower and upper.Worked at Swan Hunters then went to sea,emigrated to Australia in 1982 as Thatcher destroyed any chance of employment !!.Loved my prefab home,maybe not the icicles on the inside of the windows.
