Story
We've just lost our dad, Peter McLeish, to prostate cancer; however, the disease did not define him. His passion was local history and the support he gave to the local community in so many ways. Therefore, we would like to set up a memorial fund in his name as a legacy to support historical projects in Coalburn and the Clydesdale area. Thank you so much for your support, Barbara and Fiona.

A sad loss. Had many a chit chat in One Stop Shop. Peter kindly gave me a photo of my grandfather in his Coalburn pipe band uniform after I gave a talk about my 20 years in the Trows.
