Lanarkshire / Re: 499 Glasgow Road, Wishaw - where was it?

If you were across the road from the Sunnyside row of tenements your house would have had an odd number. The wee house your talking about was 275 Glasgow Road. 246 would have been up at the Heathery bar up at the roundabout. The school was Berryhill Primary. The wee shop next to it was Alex Weir’s (the penny tray lol) Just behind that house at the bottom of the railway embankment was a wee burn with newts in it. Behind the school was the bing, behind the bing were three ponds. I think we called them the Canyon, the Fraser and the Captain. Was my playground back then. I know that area very well.

499 Glasgow Rd was the first wee single story building between the Cottage and the Tenaments. I've marked where it is in this photo. The server would appear to be down so I only have this rather poor quality photo of the old buildings.

That map shows you where 499 Glasgow Road was. Roughly the centre of that photo.

499 Glasgow Road was where the orange hall sits now. I will try and post a photo of the orange hall to the left of it behind the bushes was small cottages and to the right of it the tenements.

The attached photo shows the wee cottage just behind the bushes “the gatekeeper for Whitegates lived there” the next building is the Orange Hall where 499 would have stood and the tenements next are the odd numbers 501 to 527 Glasgow road. I don’t know the wee dogs name in front of the bushes. Lol
