Old Biggar

Biggar is the quintessential picturesque country town, and Ann Matheson's book contains a fantastic selection of pictures portraying its inhabitants at work and play. From a shot of Gilbert Rae's ironmonger's, its window festooned with every sort of pot, pan and jug imaginable, to a flock of sheep being ushered up the High Street, it's all here. Albion Motors are represented, along with several pictures of wartime charity collections, weavers' cottages at Westraw, a curling match on Biggar Pond, and much more.
