Discovered at the former Lenzie Primary School, the violin and dark green case were unearthed when the building was being prepared for refurbishment.

Colin Jack, regional director for Scotland with Newcastle-based All Saints Living, said: “This has been quite an unusual find. Given that the development was formerly a school, we don’t know if it belonged to the music department or a pupil. We are asking anyone who attended Lenzie School to get in touch so that we can reunite the violin with its owner.



“We have also posted a picture of the violin on our Twitter and Facebook accounts and hope that others will share this too. We really want this musical story to end on a high note! Anyone with any information relating to the violin is asked to contact us.”

The new Moncrieff View development will feature 11 new-build apartments in the original school building and a further nine in an adjacent three-storey extension.
