Mitchell Street
A Memory of Coatbridge.
I was born in Mitchell Street in 1952 we were a big family; 7 brothers and 2 sisters and things were very hard but everyone got along well with each other. I remember visiting my auntie Nan in the slap up top floor Henderson St above Aldos Store. The town was full of steelworks sadly all gone, now the glen was a great place for us as kids and you could play there all day until the Bargeddie boys would sneak up on us and throw stones from the viaduct. I have many good memories of the town and I still have family there, I left 26 years ago to live in Blairgowrie (the berries). I visit as often as I can and it will always have a place in my heart. I hope anyone reading this recognises my description of the town.
