Pies are good but would be better if they opened it a bit earlier. Linlithgow High Street would make for a cracking pub crawl. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to try to make it to Gala this season, it's not that far for me plus that stand is pure brutalist porn 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six pubs from Platform 3 at the station, ending at West Port which is 2 mins from Prestonfield https://www.facebook.com/Linlithgowpubtrail/ . Get a t-shirt for your efforts (and £5). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trail is crap now only 6 pubs on it. There are 9 pubs on High Street from Platform 3 to the West Port and the Rose club make a proper pub crawl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still better than a lot of grounds down here mind you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fence wasn't there when I started going in the mid 70s, I think the first fence around the track was in the late 70s early 80s when wheels came off cars and ended up in the crowd, the council must have given the stock car company grief about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the subject of groundhopping, is Threave Rovers ground the opposite end of the town from the Tesco? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
