Without drifting too far off topic... the cars in the Park Side picture.... What is the car travelling R to L along the main road? Methinks a Vauxhall - but what model? An Austin A30 van bottom left. Austin Mini and Singer Gazelle (??) parked on R.H.side. A Cortina Mk.1 at the stop line with a Reliant (?) behind it.

Halcyon days when there was hardly any foreign cars on our roads. Proper (pre-Warboys) Halt Sign too !!

Continuing thanks Zipper for the pictures.

Is this the one at the bottom of Victoria Road ? I seem to remember it was very ornate - almost on a par with the gents in the Philharmonic pub .

Here is one for Dilly. The Prefabs in Citrine Road, at the bottom of Oakdale Road where the swings are now. Not a car in site as no one could afford one those days.
