Parade in Balvicar Street

A parade for the opening of the 93rd (Norman) Boy Scout Group's scout hall in 1958.

The procession appears to be coming from Queen's Park, along Balvicar Street, passing Camphill Queen's Park Church on its way to the new Jewish Scout Hall in Queen's Drive. The boy scouts lead the way, with the cubs following and the girl guides and brownies bringing up the rear. The tenements which can just be seen next to the church were subsequently demolished and replaced in 2003-2004 with executive flats.
