Tom Train Lane, Dumfries
Dumfries and Galloway Council, Nithsdale Area Committee Report, 10 December 2008:
"A letter from Mrs Phyllis Macrae, of Nunholm Road, Dumfries was received
requesting that the unnamed lane off Nunholm Road, which runs parallel to the
houses of Nunholm Place, be named “Tom Train Lane”. This request was made in
honour of Dr. Train who is a neighbour of Mrs Macrae’s. Dr Train has had a
distinguished career as a Gynaecologist with a long established connection with
Nunholm Road. It is understood that Dr Train used to maintain the grass areas
along the lane.
Mrs Macrae has undertaken some investigation into the ownership of the lane.
Having consulted with Planning and Environmental Services, Property Services and
Combined Services - Roads Services, Scot Rail and local neighbours, Mrs Macrae
established that the lane is an ancient right of way and does not belong to anyone."
