A move to commemorate one of Gatehouse of Fleet’s most famous sons, Hamish MacInnes, has been welcomed by a childhood pal of the legendary mountaineer.
Mr MacInnes passed away aged 90 at his Glencoe home in November, 2020, and following his death Gatehouse Community Council discussed a permanent memorial in his home town.
A draft design was produced for a plaque in his honour which the community council proposes could be installed at his former home in Catherine Street.
