It was really interesting to see how land was used back in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Giffnock was a thriving farming and agricultural town with a sandstone quarry; producing sandstone for around the world.

We particularly enjoyed looking at old-fashioned handwriting on the old census’ and pictures on the iPads.
