Bo'ness Hillclimb circa 1960 !! : A series of pictures taken circa 1960 at the Hillclimb that, many years ago, ran in the grounds close to Kinneil House at Bo'ness. Not great pictures technically but I hope that they will be of some interest. In the background in a few of the shots is Kinneil House The grounds contain the ruins of James Watt’s cottage and the boiler of his Newcomen Engine, providing a clear link from here to Greenock and the Clyde ! The contrast with the safety precautions then (almost non existent !) and todays at the Doune and Forrestburn events is apparent. Not to mention the fashion styles !! A sobering thought when I realise that I have been watching motorsport, of and on, for around 50 years !! Edit June 2008. The laudable efforts of enthusiastic individuals who have formed the Bo'ness Hill Climb Revival club have been given approval that a revival Hill Climb can take place on the weekend 9/10th August 2008. Well done !!
