That was a different camp - the Hansard is for 1918, the gunsite was WW2. I will look into it, must be on the maps somewhere.


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

I love reading old threads and the link to the site Kimpri posted doesn't work now which is frustrating when reading through these old threads.
Just found this about the Bidston camp which is probably the same page that Kimpri posted but is now a different URL, so thought I'd repost it for anyone else reading old threads. wink

Thanks mikeeb. People used to say, once its on the internet, its there forever. I disagree. I have seen loads of stuff disappear off it, probably forever.
