Oh wow, that's really interesting about the Fallkirk name eh.

What amazing history that Stenhousemuir has had eh!

I'm going to check tat out myself as I find history like that quite facinating.

Such s shame about the twat being a total twat! I can see why you're raging about it- no thoughts about the significance of it did they.

I can see how Stone house became Stenhouse, but not at has made me think about the origins of the name Muir- maybe from the moors?

Do you remember the british tv show called the Ghost and Mrs Muir?

I loved that show....🤣
Do you ever think about being a detectorist over there?

I mean that land over there has seen so many millions of feet and hooves walking all over it dropping things...

Ever been over to the west coast- Ayreshire way?

Sort:  

Yes, I think Muir comes from moor.
I have to say that I do have an attraction to becoming a detectorist - but know that I probably dont have the spare time !
Yes, we do get over Ayrshire way now and again. Particularly to Culzean Castle and Park which we really love.

Oooh I would LOVE to have a go at detectoring, but yes, we need to work out a way to make some better passive income to have the time!

What's Ayreshire like?

That's my Mum's origins- her dad was born in Bonhill but they came from Giffen in Ayreshire...

I will get there one day to have a look- hopefully
