Here you will find some of the raw data which we used in compiling the booklet and this website. Much of it is culled from public records as you will see if you consult the Acknowledgements. Reminiscences are personal to those who freely gave us interviews and who agreed to make their stories available. For students of social history, this website gives a flavour of what it was like to live and work in south-west Edinburgh in the mid twentieth century.
