Thank you to Paul Weddell for allowing me to reproduce the photograph above taken by his father in Holyrood Square.

Mrs Finlayson

"This photo was taken in 1956 and by my father.  It shows Mrs Finlayson from 28 Holyrood Square.

The child could be me***.

We are not sure who the  young woman is.  It could be June Weddell.  The Weddells stayed at 29 Holyrood Square."

My Mum

June Weddell (née Cassie)

"Thanks for including my comments above. It was a nice surprise and it meant a lot to me to see the photo of my mum, June Weddell,  on the web site as she passed away on 20 November this year, aged 83.  She was very proud of being a 'squarey'."
