Hi there i am trying to find from an old photo where in kelty the moray Manse was situated can any one please help
1934 and earlier
Looks like the manse in bath street to me. Was the manse for oakfield church.
Some answers
9. I think the first taxis might have been McConvilles. They stayed at the bottom of Blair St and housed the cars in what used to be Coo Jean's cow shed in Union St.
13. An Anderson air raid shelter- made of corragated iron with domed roof.
16. Cheesecutter was one of the things you could sit/swing on when a person at either end beamed it up in Kelty play park.
18. I remember this as being Fotheringham's which now houses Kelty Art Supplies down from the Art Shop which used to be Annie Hamiltons.
19. Do you mean Coo Jean's which was on the corner of Cocklaw St & Union St. It was a sweetie shop/dairy. Or do you mean Jean McDonald's opposite the school which was general store/tuck shop.
23. I think it might have been havoline, not sure.

That building reminds me of the old ministers house, you go down Blackroad towards Maryburgh and just before the bridge is an opening to the left goes up to where old Adams terrace was, the evangelists had that house, they eventually painted the house.
