Flower Street And Tay Lodge 1950's

My grandad lived at 2 Flower Street and he saved a kid from drowning in Tay Lodge , for which he received a police commendation. He was called Wilson Birch and his daughter was my mum Violet Pollard who went to Higginshaw school as Violet Birch. Does anyone remember the huge stores of gas masks in the old mills, they were all unused. Graham Pollard. 30/04/16

Tay Mill

I also remember playing at Tay Mill lodge, I lived just up the road in Hesse Street and attended Higginshaw school until the age of 7. I have very happy memories of Hesse Street, I lived there from 1946 to 1960. The street no longer exists and industrial buildings adorn the site. I keep searching the web for photos of the old street but so far no luck.
