Benquhat, Burnfoothill, Lethanhill, Darnconner and Commondyke are all of interest to researchers at the Scottish Oral History Centre at Strathclyde University along with Glenbuck, the childhood home of footballer Bill Shankly who managed Liverpool in the 1960s.
Dr Yvonne McFadden, research associate at the centre, said: “A lot of these memories are going to be lost soon if we don’t capture them. They are really important to the industrial heritage of Scotland. East Ayrshire was such a integral part of that heritage and there hasn’t been this type of work to capture the lives of the miners and their families before.”
