Looks like it's at the Junction Road houses opposite the end of Union Street.

Some young looking men there! Looking at the hairstyles of some younger players, I would suggest it's maybe a bit later than 1960.

Looks like Gary Gibson is in the middle of it - that's his face partially shielded by the balding man near the window.

I think this looks like the end of Olaf Place, but it's a bit difficult to tell.
