According to the section '50 years ago,' the Ardrossan Dockyard had a visit from Harold Wilson, who had previously been the Head Draughtsman there. Is this THE Harold Wilson ??

George and I were just talking about that - but according to Wikipedia :
Although Wilson had two abortive attempts at an All Souls Fellowship, he continued in academia, becoming one of the youngest Oxford University dons of the century at the age of 21. He was a lecturer in Economic History at New College from 1937, and a Research Fellow at University College during the period 1938 to 1945. For much of this time, he was a research assistant to William Beveridge, the Master of the College, working on the issues of unemployment and the trade cycle.
