Do you have copies of pics mentioned? Would love to see. The dropbox links seem to be dead. I am descended from a Heather Bell player. If it's the pic I think it is then I think its the Dalmellington Challenge Cup

Thanks

For those with a propensity for mountaineering, i've located the grounds of Benwhat (or more properly Benquhat) Heatherbell and Burnfoothill Primrose high up (at about 1000 feet) above the Doon Valley in Ayrshire.
