Cambusnethan House, or Cambusnethan Priory, in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, was designed by James Gillespie Graham and completed in 1820. It is generally regarded as being the best remaining example of a Graham-built country house in the quasi-ecclesiastical style of the Gothic revival

Nice to see the way it used to be :)
Thank you for this video. Apparently my Scottish great great grandparents were married in Ayton in the 1800’s before eventually leaving for Canada.
Found an old Wishaw Press from June 1963 with the disappearance of a 16 year old Rose Sullivan from Newmains, and a male accordionist from Coatbridge, due to perform at the Largs show. Glad to have found your video!
Brilliant film, great to see proper tradesmen and apprentices working, just grateful that the place is still there, a testament to good business.
Loved this. A little before my time but reminded me of my Apprenticeship Days. My foreman wore a suit jacket and trousers to work and he commended me on polishing my boots every day before work. Proper good little film that 👌 👍 👏
Born 1947 left 1956
Thank you, b. My nine-year-old Grand-Daughter has loved this song - with her copious smiles and laughter - since she was a few months old, 2014 ('L' was born December 2013). Bye for now. Rab 🍻 😎
Thank you for the nostalgia, Shane/bigscotsman1. *Subscribed!* Circa 1980, in Livingston, West Lothian, my friend *Andy Cocozza* and I practised his songs, in hopes that we may form a band. Andy played a Gibson SG guitar. I played bass. Andy was/is an extra-talented songwriter that I have never forgotten. I have tried for many years to re-connect with Andy, without success. Can you (or your subscribers/viewers) help in any way, please? All the best. Stay free. Rab Feenie 🍻 😎⏰ 🎲 🕊
Didn’t worry about dust then going in your lungs they made a good job of it though
Exactly where was the Bellhaven Cafe in Wishaw? Is it still there? If not, is the building still there? Fascinating historical film!
The golden fry chip shop
Magical wee film, in the quest for modernisation. Funny enough, in these modern times, 60s/70s signages are being removed to disclose the old, faded hand painted signs of yore. Wishaw does indeed look quaint. Trades folk with no hard hats or high vis vest; older hands with suit jackets roll ups and newspaper in the pocket! And the dog was an absolute star! Stroll On! El
Watching the auld chippy s (joiners )at work none of your fancy battery drills in use takes me back.the old hand plane and a pad and bits.
As an apprentice electrician in mid 70s Glasgow nothing struck fear better than being told " you will need 2 trestles and a catwalk" to do a job..we used them with the catwalk on the top to repair canopy lights in petrol stations.. God help you if you accidently stepped back (or forward)
Who owns lennox castle and how can i find out

Don't think you can anymore, and with the added Security now.

Absolutely brilliant. That's when our wee town looked amazing. Wish Wishaw still looked like this.
Cannae go wrang wae long panning shots eh the majestic Tír na nÓg
Ye ken there's thousands eh inaccessible gorges up and down the highlands that have never had any kind o'interaction wae mankind.
This gave me absolute goosebumps. I wish wishaw still looked like this.
Nice, moody, Ye'll het te knock yersel up a big Eagles nest te launch yer drone fe :), Kinardochy is like a plate eh glass.
Fantastic m8

Could have done with an Eagles POV, maybe next time. :)

There's a wheen o'gorges that huv never been explored in scotland because they're simply inaccessible, the technology didn't exist, but it does now, when kin ye get startit, mid winter should be ideal :)
Ah wid hey prefered it if ye hud hey left the drone at the carpark n walked up te the collapsed path barrier n flew it fae there aw the wae inte the falls n back :)

Great film, thanks for posting. Enrico was a nice wee gentleman with a vast record collection.
Can't believe what I'm seeing, I'm sure the younger joiner with slick back hair @ 8.28 is my Uncle John(Jack) Love from Larkhall,who went on to marry a Shotts girl, moved to East Lothian in late 50's, now living in Bundaberg Australia for the last 24 years .Jack will be 88 years old ,his wife sadly passed away 3 years ago
The dog 😊 it's so nice..i remember Enrico, i really liked him, what a character he was 👌
Excellent

Cracking film Shane. I didn't realize you were as old.

What a great wee film, thanks for posting. Wishaw had two great cafes, this and the Carlton up Kirk Road. This brought back a lot of great memories.
