I remember as a kid going up there every Saturday evening to get the Footy Echo, There was a WW2 pillbox just behind where the photo was taken; great for playing soldiers in if you didn't mind the smell.

The pillbox (public loo!) was demolished in 1967, I'd completely forgotten about this one that was well inside my childhood stomping ground.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025
