We used to walk up the side of it to get to the Blue Rock when we were kids.What's there now?
There was a story on that house somewhere.Was it in The Bugle or was it on here? The name of the house began with an E.
It's doing me nut in trying to remember!!!
Anyway talking of Birchley Park well i went to Good Shepherd and lived down Churchbridge and we played our football and cricket matches up there.
In fact i still remember the PAT number of one the roundabouts up there. PAT number 2240-24 coming!!
It was game we played on there where one of us would be blindfolded!!
What days did you play down there Antie? Maybe i can recall your visits?

I can still see the house in my minds eye!! It's a sunny day of course!
