We are pleased to announce the launch of our latest
publication “Innerleithen Shops” compiled
by local history enthusiast, Bob
Richardson.
The CD contains a detail of all the shops in Innerleithen
(and there are a surprising amount of them) from approximately 1870 to the present day.
There are photographs of every shop or the building in which the shop was
situated (apart from a few where the building has been demolished) with a
detail of their owners, their dates of ownership and the type of business.
As well as present day photographs there are also in a
number of cases images of the same shop at an earlier date and/or of bill
headings or advertisements relating to the particular shop such as the above.
Additionally there are a number of old photographs of the
Town and even a couple of previously published poems on the shops and their
owners – giving a definite bit of personal insight.
A most interesting purchase for anyone with a connection
with Innerleithen.
Co-incidentally Innerleithen Community Council has recently
launched a new website also containing a
number of old photographs and other historical information on the Town.
The CD, price £7 can be purchased at our premises or by choosing the appropriate delivery option and pressing the button below.
