Carronbridge

A Memory of Carronbridge.

Attended Carronbridge Primary about 1950 ish. I lived at the time at Braehead near Enterkinfoot, and went there until I left for Morton Academy where I finished my schooldays. I remember the 'Ireland' family well in particular Geordie or DoDo as he was known. The Headmaster was Geordie Milne, I believe he had a son killed in South Africa during my time at school. Fantastic memories: 'Peerie Maxwell, Doreen Maxwell, Lorna McLaren, Daisy Adamson, and lots more. Sadly to learn some have passed on. Remember well the wee shop that sold everything - Old Mrs Wood I believe ran it. She had a son called Wullie - like myself had a stammer. Remember getting the school bus at the shop and listening to Rab McGinlay sitting outside playing his accordian - brilliant player and couldnae read a note - or miss one for that matter....
