Old Fashioned

A different style of photograph today. I get the chains for my chainsaw here; an old fashioned business in the best sense of the word. Tom Holliday supplies and services chainsaws, grass mowers, strimmers - you can see just a few of them in the photograph - etc..

It looks chaotic, but it is not and you can't beat the friendly and knowledgeable service. It's always at a very reasonable price as well.

Minishant Tandoori



The former Lady Coates Memorial Church, a fine red sandstone building, built in 1877 by Sir Peter Coates, of the nearby Auchendrane Estate, in memory of his late wife Glorianna. It retains many of the original architectural features including a remarkable stained glass rose window.

This has in turn been a private dwelling, a 'British' restaurant and is now a Tandoori restaurant.

At least it hasn't been knocked down.
