There would seem to be a strong Finstown and Rendall presence in this Photo.Top row, centre could Pat Shearer, middle row, 2nd. from the right, John Stevenson, and far right ?Louttit. Bottom row, 1st.left Leslie Easson, centre, Bobby Marwick, although I have worked at the Finstown School, I can't remember if there was a shelter in the Playground, on looking further it could Bertie Baikie on Ian Skea's right shoulder.
