My Nan and Grandad lived there for quite a while. I think Kitty Holmes used to live there too, a name I've dragged up from that time. There used to be a load of them who worked at the Ropps (the pig intestines to sausage skins place) down at Cathcart Dock. Trying like hell to remember more.
Actually Kitty's surname might have been O'Leary, grey cells whirring.
