At #CallendarHouse for the opening of Tom Astbury's "Iron and Clay" exhibition of industrial photos from the early 1980s, I learned a lot from various photo captions.
One in particular was a 1979 photo of Robert Shaw, patternmaker of #Larbert. It is claimed that he was the first person seen on a television, when John Logie Baird did a preview demo in #Falkirk 's Temperance Hotel, prior to taking his apparatus to London.

With origins that date back to the mid-1100s and looking like a French château transplanted into Falkirk, the stunning Callendar House was built close to the line of the Roman Antonine Wall and is now an impressive museum.
