The old blue factory in one of your pictures used to be the IXL factory that made Kelso wheel barrows. There was a large fire there in the late 60's early 70's after which it was rebuilt. I can still remember the gas bottles exploding from the intensity of the fire and watching the hot scraps of metal shooting off into the night air, as a young tacker it was very scary.
