Thanks to everyone who replied to my request for info on miners' rows in Dalry.  Some suggested sources I had found already but some were new so members have been very helpful.  Any further suggestions gratefully received.

Ayrshire / miners rows Dalry, Ayrshire, 'The Raws'

Hi, my grandfather and great grandparents lived in miners' rows in Dalry.  I have started an oral history project, talking to people who remember 'The Raws'. If any members have information, especially photographs, which they think might be relevant I'd greatly appreciate hearing from you. Thanks, Marie

Hi, I just noticed your chat.  I was born in Dalry and my first thought is that there is an area bounding the Blair Estate called Lambridden but then I remembered that there is a street of council houses in the West Kilbride scheme called Reddance Terrace.  The local council often named streets after old names for nearby areas so maybe there was a miners' row or other accommodation there where your ancestor died.
