Not far along the road from Muirkirk (the first subject of our Then and Now series) lies the ancient cotton town of Catrine, about which Richard Stenlake wrote in A Lot o Genuine Folk and A Wheen o Rogues. Selecting scenes where recent changes are the most dramatic Richard shows us the company town in its industrial heyday and compares it with photographs of the modern, quieter village as it struggles to re-define itself for the 21st century.
