Hi There to Helen Bell,

Good to hear from you and yes I well remember both yourself & your Mum who worked at the clinic. Happy Days. I believe the clinic as we knew it no longer exists and now belongs to the Barony church. Understand the old Central School is now the clinic or to be more precise the Local Health Centre. Very rarely back in Kilbirnie mibi just passing through. Keep in touch J.Summers.

Memories, Nostalgia & History

History doesn't have to be in black & white

Your memory of a local character or a school photo from the last ten years can be just as interesting as wars and Victorians.
