Childhood Escapades in Leith during the 1960/70s
My earliest memories of Leith were the weekly Friday walks along to my Grans from Bernard Street to Portland Street and remembering that, if the tide was out, the mud would be stinking. I also have early memories of walking along to Starbank Park at Newhaven on Easter Sunday to roll our painted boiled eggs down the hill as it was a bit steeper than the ones in the Links. However most memories come from the time that my younger brother and I were allowed out to play on our own at around 7 or 8. There was never a day when there was nothing to do. for more click here
