Carron, Ravenscraig, Glengarnock
Starting at the only remains of the Carron Works, looking at the stone tower with carronades in the gateway. Finding the blue gate (a triumphal arch) from the Edinburgh International Exhibition of 1886. Going to the cemetery and seeing family graves, crying.
Through Ravenscraig without stopping (Gavin was not there to ground us).
Ending in Glengarnock, seeing Lorna’s gate, finding all the different bricks telling a story of industries drinking in the Masonic Lodge.
