Nostalgic memories of Strath Oykel's local history

Share your own memories of Strath Oykel 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.

From Roger Peart. DD11 2NX In the summer of 1973/74 a section of Sappers from 45 Commando in Arbroath built a bridge in the area of the Oykel Bridge hotel.Has anybody any memories of this. And does the bridge still exist? There was a plaque placed on or by the bridge. I would be really interested to know if anybody knows of this,as i intend to visit the area later in the year. Thankyou in anticipation.
