My dad is one of the pipers. We sadly lost him in 2020,is it possible to get a copy of this video please regards kath stansfield

[@howardswayable]

Hi Kathleen thankyou for your enquiry, you would probably be quicker to download it from KZbin, the video format we use to process these films is a different format to the ones normally used and would probably not play on your equipment, but please feel free to download it. Best regards Howard.

Reedyford hospital wasn't demolished until the early eighties
