Blantyre’s Ain Website… Enjoying Blantyre’s rich heritage and colourful history…



Please Like our page… and visit us on Facebook

 ‘Pit Props & Poems…’  I am pleased to announce the publication of a new book,
‘Pit Props & Poems…’



Poems and Stories by Miners and their Families…  All Proceeds going to Blantyre
Miners Welfare.

The book is on sale at Amazon for £12.50 and at present qualifies for Free
Postage within the UK. Go Here: Pit Props & Poems: Poems and Stories by Miners
and their families…

 ‘A Wander Doon Memory Lane…’  A Wander Doon Memory Lane ~ representing memories
of times gone by when Glasgow Road, Blantyre and its arteries was a welcoming
friendly place to live, shop and be entertained. Not a history by one historian
but the memories of over five hundred local people who lived it, experienced it
and loved it. So, please enjoy your Wander Doon Memory Lane and save it for the
next generation. The book is on sale at Amazon for £14.50 and at present
qualifies for Free Postage within the UK. Go Here…

The Original and some think, still their best preference for local history… on
the World Wide Web since 2003…

These pages are your pages, with your photos, your stories and your comments.
Recording the history of Blantyre as you have experienced it, in your and your
families lifetime. Without your contribution, it would be just another copy and
paste site that you see elsewhere.



Blantyre has a fascinating historical heritage, probably more than any other
village or town in Scotland can claim. Birth place of the famous Explorer and
Missionary, David Livingstone, Blantyre offers a myriad of historical events and
characters that can stretch the imagination. Besides Livingstone, we have many
famous characters that walked the streets of our village and left their mark.
Such as Lord Blantyre, Frances Teresa Stuart, David Dale, Major John Ness, Col
John Clark Forrest, Andrew McAnulty and many many more.

We have also been blessed with more of our fair share of famous Sportsmen such
as Jimmy Brownlie, Alex Menzies, Jimmy Carabine, Adam Little, Ken McKinlay,
Tommy Miller and many more to be found within these pages.

You can go down ‘Memory Lane,’ for an hour or so by visiting Pictorial History
of Auld Blantyre or enjoy the conservation between two senior Blantyre folk in a
Bite sized chunk of Blantyre History.

You can take time out and relive your childhood by reading the many Poems about
Blantyre and Poems about Miners.

And, what is probably quite unique, Residents of Blantyre can have their
families Memorial posted in In Loving Memory complete with a photograph of the
Headstone, for all the world to see. This means that families abroad can “visit”
the graveyard and pay their respects by logging on to the site.

Finally, this web site could not exist if it were not for the sponsorship,
predominately by Ex-Pats, which helps to cover the running costs. So, if you
enjoy the site, please make a Donation.

We hope that you enjoy your web site and you are invited to recommend any
resources or features you would like to be included within these pages.
