Panorama from Tantallon, Donaldfield Road 1960's
Image: © David A Paterson Taken: Unknown
Taken by my father at my childhood home, this picture taken in the mid 1960's shows some detached houses, at least one of which appears to have been demolished and rebuilt more recently (per Google Street View), and to the right some of the farm buildings that stood at the top of what is now St Andrews Drive. The side of the lorry reads "John Robertson" with a Bridge of Weir phone number. From here you can see the City of Glasgow. I distinctly remember looking at the QE2 during its construction. I was therefore proud that my eldest son was serving on HMS Lancaster when his ship accompanied the QE2 to its final resting place in Dubai in 2008. Can't be many of this view around hence my posting it!
