Port Glasgow, My hometown

A short film showing the town of Port Glasgow. The town I spent my childhood in and the footage shows the streets i played, shopped, socialised and was educated on. I made this as part of the series of films I've been doing documenting the Port as it is in 2023, as there are exciting plans to regenerate the town and its vast community spirit in the next few years in the run up to the towns 250th anniversary in 2025 and they have one mighty party planned to celebrate.

There are lots of community based plans to involve everyone and if you want to find out more about this there is a facebook page with details of the plans that are in the pipeline and ways you can get involved.

I'd like to give a special mention to two facebook groups that have been a bit of a lifeline for me in recent months as I've returned to live here and its a different place completely to the place I left 30 years back. The people however are still as great as ever and thats the success story of Port Glasgow, so thanks. Port Glasgow Memories and Port Glasgow Nostalgia for allowing me to share my footage with you and for the reminders of home how it was back in my day.

As always please feel free to comment and share my videos (any of them). A subscription to my channel would be great because the more subscribers the less chance of my videos fading into obscurity.

Anyway, Thank you for watching yet another one of my videos.
