Heriot Mount - Back Green
Thank you to Joyce Ritchie, daughter of Wullie Croal, for telling
me:
"This photo was taken in the backgreen of
No.6 Heriot Mount. Us kids used to hold backgreen concerts while
our mums held jumble sales in the corner.
Our audience used to sit on the steps
leading up to the first level of the backgreen.
I spent the first 11 years of my life in
Heriot Mount (1945-1956) and have so many lovely memories of it."

Ladies at Heriot Mount

"I suspect that one of the Ladies in this photograph is my
grandmother, Julia Russell Taylor. She lived at Heriot Mount
with my grandfather, Alfred, and their four children (inc Alex my
father) and also a lodger.
My grandmother
was originally a Lennox. I believe that her brother, James
Lennox, also lived in Heriot Mount. That would have been from
the 1930s to the 1950s."
