These i took early 2006. The young thing carrying my bags, is my partner Donna.

I can also remember a crane dredging it in the very early 70's as well, and my Dad said that he used to deliver bread to the cottage that stood on the corner.

The pond and the woodland looked better before they 'improved' it !! It's an absolute mess now. I did all my early fishing on there with my dad and brother.

I agree with you there Dean - although supposedly a 'wildlife haven' the only wilflife you see in there is the drinking cans of larger and making fires sort :(

I used to go to that cottage to deliver milk in the 50s & 60s. Can`t remember the name of the chap who lived there, but I do remember him placing bets for punters at Grand National time.
