The West Shore, Strathaven
This quiet country road, just outside Strathaven, is apparently called 'West Shore' but only a very few locals I have spoken to know it as that. Further into Strathaven there is a 'North Shore'; East and South are missing, unless anyone knows better? The house in the distance is Colinhill Farm Cottage.

The end of Colinhill Road, Strathaven
With Applegarth Road going off on the right. At this point, after the last house, Colinhill Road reduces to a single track lane and bends down to join the main A71 road.
Blue sky and COLD - a day after a heavy snowfall with around 5 to 6 inches of snow.

Lauder Ha', the home of Sir Harry Lauder
Sir Harry Lauder was the superstar of his day. He commissioned this new house and settled at Strathaven in 1936. The greeting "Frae a' the airts the wind can blaw; ye're welcome here at Lauder Ha" is inscribed on the fireplace of the Ha'. This house hosted many of the great stars of the time, including Jimmy Durante, Laurel and Hardy, Danny Kaye, Frankie Lane, the Beverley Sisters and Jimmy Logan.
