THE PICTORIAL HISTORY OF NIDDRIE WAS PUT TOGETHER BY
SCOTT AND KENNY WHITELAW.
THE AIM OF THIS WEB SITE IS TO RECORD THE MANY CHANGES NIDDRIE AND
CRAIGMILLAR HAS GONE THROUGH OVER THE YEARS.
WE HAVE DONE MUCH RESEARCH WORKING WITH MANY AGENCIES TO BRING TOGETHER
A COMPREHENSIVE SET OF IMAGES, THROUGH THESE IMAGES WE HOPE TO STIR UP MEMORIES, BRING BACK SOME
THOUGHTS OF ALL THE CHANGES THE COMMUNITY HAS GONE THROUGH.
FROM SOME OF THE FIRST PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES OF THE BREWING INDUSTRY
AND OLD NIDDRIE MILL, THE CREAMERY, THE CASTLE, THE SCHOOLS, THROUGH THE DEMOLITION OF THE FLATS TO THE PRESENT DAY.
THIS PROJECT IS ONGOING AND WILL BE UPDATED FROM TIME TO TIME WITH
NEW MATERIAL AS THE AREA ENTERS ANOTHER PHASE.
SCOTT AND KENNY WELCOME COMMENTS FROM VISITORS AND ARE ALWAYS KEEN
TO GET OLD PICTURES AND STORIES.
WE HOPE THE SITE CAN BE OF USE TO SCHOOLS AND EDUCATION GROUPS AND
FOR ANCESTER RESEARCH PURPOSE`S,
SCOTT AND KENNY BOTH GREW UP IN NIDDRIE AND STILL HAVE FAMILY CONNECTIONS
IN THE AREA.
SPECIAL THANKS TO CRAIGMILLAR PARTNERSHIP, ANDREW CRUMMIE, AND THE
ROYAL COMMISION ON THE ANCIENT AND HISTORICAL MONUMENTS OF SCOTLAND FOR THIER HELP WITH OLD PICTURES OF NIDDRIE.
