I worked up on the roof of the library a few years after this, demolishing the roof lights.

Long time since there was that much shops in Greenock opened its all pound shops now or shops nobody goes into the port has better shops and selection and much better rent prices for the shop owners high rents in the mall killed Greenock town centre that's why city status is very laughable not even the residents of Greenock shop there

tesco multi storey car park if it was open today save all those daft clocks and a fortune in parking charges used to use it all the time when shopping in town really a wasted space now

There used to be a film on RUclips of the old St Columba’s school on Peat Road being demolished. It had Clair de Lune in the background. Does anybody know if that film is still available? It was my Mum’s old school and I wanted to show her. Anyone?
