Period vehicle
A 1971 Vauxhall Viva, outside a house on Rowan Drive, which has been used as a film set. A small unit from Galashiels was filming here (in and around No. 32, on the left) over several days between mid-July and late August. The charity film, set in the 1980s - early 2000s, is based on the life of John Davidson MBE https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Davidson_(Tourette_syndrome_campaigner).

Remains of old building, Craigdhu Burn
A section of brickwork has been exposed by the burn. This probably belongs to the Burnbrae Dye Works, which used to be situated here in the 19th century.

Filming in progress
At the corner of Rowan Drive. A small unit from Galashiels was filming here (in and around No. 32, with the red roof) over several days between mid-July and late August. The charity film is based on the life of John Davidson MBE https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Davidson_(Tourette_syndrome_campaigner). Set in the 1980s - early 2000s, residents were requested not to park in the area around where filming was happening. The gold-coloured 1971 Vauxhall Viva was a 'period vehicle' brought in for the filming.
