Hi, I am new to this forum but I have been trying to trace anything to do with Ladyburn Buildings for ages, without any success. My Dad was born there in 1920 and brought up there, leaving at the age of about 20. He was one of about 9 siblings (Kath, Sarah, George, Frank are just a few I recall) his name William (Billy) Gemmell, Roman Catholic. I would welcome any information, photo’s, reminiscences etc. I did visit his mother during her time in Ladyburn Buildings and remember it was a ‘low-rise’ tenement building (2 stories?) with outside lavatory and communal laundry houses. Can anyone help fill in some gaps (school he would have attended etc). Grateful for any information.
