It’s fun to read about the area in the perspective of 1963 – before Scotland held its own modern day parliament for example. Quite a fun find! The books at Top Pot aren’t necessarily just for decoration.

Now maybe I’ll get around to going through some more of my photos, I hope to get them uploaded soon!
