Old Blackwood and Kirkmuirhill

Old Blackwood and Kirkmuirhill takes in Auchenheath, Boghead, Tillietudlum and Draffan, in addition to the villages mentioned in the title. It offers a good selection of quality period photographs which give a taste of early twentieth century life in the district. These range from street scenes, views of local miners and the railway station, to pictures of Kirkmuirhill Juniors, Blackwood House and local school photographs. There is also a photograph of a 'creeling', an old marriage custom.
