Street name on OPR?
« on: Saturday 19 November 05 04:48 GMT (UK) »
I've received a copy of an OPR (banns & marriages) for William Innes (shoemaker) who married Cordelia McLean in Barony, Lanark in December of 1833 - there appears to be a street name that I am at a loss to locate.  Anyone find this phrase to be familiar at all?:

Anderstoir Walk (or could read Anderston Walk - hard to read)

I've tried doing searches for it but am coming up with nothing.  Any thoughts are appreciated!

Searching Google for - Glasgow "Anderston Walk" - brings up several references. It appears that Anderston Walk led between Glasgow and the village / parish of Anderston and apparently part of it is now Argyle Street.

Thank you Douglas, I'll try that again.  I did try "googling" it but maybe I was being too specific (or not specific enough).  I'll give it a go.
