A local man has asked for Northsound's help to trace his old workmates that worked at Craiginches prison between the 70's and mid 90's.

71 year old Brian Glennie and two friends, who used to be wardens, have been searching for their old friends for years, and are now trying to arrange a reunion dinner to bring them all together again

They've set up a group, and made it their mission to find their old pals.

Brian said it would “bring a tear to his eye” to be reunited with the men and women after all these years.

The institution was well known for being the site of Scotland’s last hanging, but closed its doors this time last year.

Did you or do you know anyone who worked at the prison?

You can email the group on: reunion15@hotmail.com

Norhtsound's reporter Hope Webb caught up with Brian about his memories of the prison.
