I was talking about The Wids on the left hand side of Nitshill road (left if your going toward the Hurlet - Walsh's/Welsh's [?] Timber Yard on the right) down behind the houses on Pinmore street (are they still there?). I think the confusion arose because I also asked about the Irony which was along the other side of the road, but thanks all the same.
I thought the Irony was a sewage pipe but was unsure, thanks. I was hoping the name of the Wids could be found in some old map or other but doesn't look like it - cheers everybody all the same.
I remember an old folks home also and some kind of derelict castle (probabley just an old house) next to the burn (Levern water) in The Wids.
It was interesting to hear about a path from the Irony to the Brickie. This must have been before Glenora Drive was built which was before my time - although I remember the Brickie!
Cheers everybody, Joe
