Nostalgic memories of Chirnside's local history

Share your own memories of Chirnside 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.

My first holiday to Spittal and I was 2 weeks old. Went nearly every year, stayed at Elm Bank Caravan Park. Then later on stayed just down the hill from there at the chalets with the paddling pool and park at the front. Was great holidays, a stone throw away from the beach amusement park nearby with the trampolines. A right british holiday .
On 11 July 1999, At the North of England Ferret Racing Championships held in Blythe, Northumberland, UK, an Albino Ferret called 'WARHOL' owned by Jacqui Adams of CHIRNSIDE, Berwickshire, ran the 32ft Tube Race in a WORLD RECORD 12.59 seconds. It's now 2007 and the Record hasn't been beaten still. Warhol was nicknamed Berwickshire's White Lightening by the press. Sadly Warhol died in 2002.
