I'll also enclose the scans of Fin' Me Oot - the shot
showing Redlees Cottage is from the postcard site, but
the other shot is from a local dog walker. This came
from a discussion about Fin' Me Oot on a thread in
this forum:

As you'll see from page 1 & 2 of this topic, the pic
of the women is from a local fella called Eddie,
funnily enough, and it shows his mother and
grandmother holding his baby sister, and is dated
around 1935. If you explore the topic further, you'll
see recent pics and maps of where it is now, courtesy
of myself, and some speculation as to whether the
village was connected to the nearby army anti-aircraft
gun emplacement nearby on Blantyre Farm Rd. I'm the
contributor called Gap74, in case you didn't figure!
Many posts on this topic by a contributor called
Captain Brittles have been deleted after he had a
fall-out with the forum moderators, but I don't think
anything too bad is missing.

I've also attached another pic which is a comparison
shot of the Fin Me Oot postcard, which I took a few
weeks ago.
