The Thistle tavern,Dunfermline
« on: Tuesday 19 February 08 20:42 GMT (UK) »
Hi, is there anyone in Dunfermline who has been in the Thistle on baldridgeburn?

A relative of mine Margaret Sharp cook (Maggie) was the landlady there for some time probably after 1916 when she married. My mother even remembers going there when very young so they must have been there a while (she isn't that old!!)

I am aware that it is now the headquarters of the local folk club but do you know if there are any old photos etc inside?

I could contact them direct but if you are a budding folk music fan perhaps you can help.  :D
