Boys On The Bridge
1st October 1955: A group of boys passing under the elaborate metalwork gateway of a bridge in the Scottish industrial town of Kilmarnock. Kilmarnock is home to a variety of industries, including the Johnnie Walker whisky distillery and John Lawsons tartan factory, as well as others less traditional to Scotland such as Saxone shoes and Glenfield and Kenny, manufacturers of high quality hydraulic equipment. It is hoped that the diversity of these enterprises will protect the towns economy in the event of a slump so that the low rate of unemployment, 1.5 per cent of the working population, does not increase.
