Notes:
Pointing like a finger into the sea on the far west of Scotland is the beautiful Kintyre peninsula, and on its southernmost tip - the Mull - and nestled in its lee, is the village of Southend. The village has a special claim to fame - stand on a hilltop and you can look right across the Atlantic! This stretch of that mighty ocean tumbling onto the shore also washes the coast of Northern Ireland, just 12 miles away. Capturing the past on the printed page is a passion with author Avril Stone. And something of a personal mission. She compiled this book at her home on the Mull of Kintyre with the help of local families. Packed with more than 350 nostalgic photographs, featuring the people, places, events, groups and personalities of Southend over the last century, this book will reunite all those who love the area with their fondest memories of this most special place.
