Seagate

A Memory of Irvine.

I was born and lived at the big building No 33 Seagate, it was a great street to grow up in. Outside the close was a gas lamp where we children played around. This wee house was for a long time empty then a family called Frasers moved in, later it was taken over by Wullie Findlay who was famous for his kilt making, he used to make my brother's kilts, then when he grew out of them they were reversed for me, this was what we had to do in the 1940s. Next door where you see the gap was a wee cottage where two families lived, Andersons and Clarkes. I have very fond memories of Seagate and still go back regular to have a wee look.

Oh wow! Thank you so much for sharing your memory of Seagate. My 3rd Great Grandparents lived at No.23 during the late 1800s. The house is still there and I am planning to visit this summer with my family.
