WE WOULD be hard pressed to run a spot the difference competition with these two photographs.

The top one is a photograph of Longrow South which was discovered by A Stewart in Canada andsent to The Courier; it is believed to have been taken some time during the first half of the last century.

The second photograph was taken on Monday morning.

The only difference we can see is that it would be a brave man (or wee dog) that now stopped for a chat in the middle of the road given the amount of traffic in the town centre today.
