| Peter Manuel from Birkinshaw carried out a series of murders in the latter half of the 1950's in north west Lanarkshire. Including one near Burntbroom Farm. Many items of evidence vital to his conviction were later found in the fields of Burntbroom and in the North Calder Water. Detective Des Thompson of Glasgow Police has built a site relating this important era of Baillieston's history. Our thanks to Des for allowing us to link to his site. baillieston.net 2004 |
