Hi Harry - thanks for your comment. This MacGregors was further up the High Street on the opposite side to Boyds - more or less opposite what was once Borely the Ironmongers?

Hi again Harry - I think I got the name of the Ironmongers wrong? Was it not Gilbert Ross?
Added by Heather on 17 August 2019
Yes it was Gilbert Ross Ironmongers, your step-father worked there along with Frank etc.

It was indeed Gilbert Ross but there is a connection. David Borley worked in the shop for a good number of years.

I'm pretty sure my granda Hamish Mackay worked here. Sadly no longer with us to ask

When I made a trip back in 1976 there was also Rhynds on the corner of High and Bank streets, in the former Mackenzies (Naxi's) shop. Also a supermarket set-up of sorts.
