Blackwood and Kirkmuirhill Gala Procession 2018

The weather was glorious for this event - sunny and warm. Two bands took part (Coalburn IOR Pipe Band and Coalburn Silver Band) but there were only two floats -a walking float (World Cup Flags) and a motorised float (Bonnie Babies).

The procession was photographed in Southfield Road, Thornton Drive and Scott Street. There are also photos taken in Lochanbank Park.
