Waterside Echo Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Where were they WE - are you counting Brocclehursts and The Wagon and Horses garage on Meadowhead ? I remember the two just before Abbey Lane, the one at the bottom of Derbyshire Lane and - was there a very small one down at the bottom, near Valley Road. Next to the police sub-station ? If there was one near Valley Road which I don't remember then that makes six vox as Chesterfield Road ends at the bottom of Meadow Head. The other two were Chantrey Car Hire near Chantrey Road and the Renault dealer on the corner of Tadcaster Road at the junction with Scarsdale Road.

vox Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I just had a look on google, and the site at the side of the police sub-station is much too small so it was probably a little car pitch that I remember. (and it still is) I do remember the one at the bottom of Scarsdale now that you remind me, but I can't picture one at Chantry Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chantrey Car Hire and petrol station was at the bottom of Olivet Road, seem to remember it being on the left corner. W/E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
