89th Stenhousemuir Scout Hall
This building was opened in November 1955 as the British Legion (Scotland), Larbert District Branch, Memorial Hall and Branch Headquarters. Adam Gossart, Chairman of the branch at the time, presided over the opening ceremony, and his name is still remembered in Stenhousemuir with the construction of Adam Gossart Court, a care facility currently managed by Cairn Housing Association. The British Legion hall is situated on the corner of James Street, Stenhousemuir and Park Drive, opposite Crownest Park. It consisted of, on the ground floor, two rooms, kitchen and toilets, while the upper floor was the main hall capable of holding 200 people. At the time it cost £3.800 to build. It is currently being used by the 89th Stenhousemuir Scout Group. (Source: Falkirk Herald 12/11/1955)

Crownest Park - plaque 1
One of two plaques sited on a pillar at what was once the entrance gate to the park from Park Drive. Locally known as "The Lido", it is not a lido as such. Crownest Park was laid out as a memorial to King George V and by the 1950s its central feature was the "children's lido" - more a pond with a sandy beach. The park is one of about 471 across the UK that were bestowed to the local communities as protected ground by King George V for outdoor and recreational purposes. The protected status should be managed by FIT (Fields in Trust), formerly the National Playing Fields Association, founded in 1925 by King George V. These plaques are found at various fields and parks around the UK to designate that the ground is protected as stated. (Information from various sources and credit given to them)
