Stuart Wilson is Lanark’s next Lord Cornet

THIS year’s Lord Cornet Stuart Wilson has a Lanimer pedigree like no other!In fact, you could almost say he was born to be Cornet.

His father Alexander (Sandy) Wilson was Lord Cornet in 1969; his grandfather Carse Wilson was Cornet in 1926; and his great-grandfather Andrew Wilson was Lord Cornet twice, in 1893 and then again in 1903.

And his mum, Ena Wilson, sashed the Cornet in 1994.
