On a hot summer sunday afternoon, this area would be like a crowded beach, with families and kids paddling and swimming, along with their picnics and blankets, those were the days!

Merv Watkins. I used to work at the Spread every saturday and sunday morning, emtying the bottle baskets and sorting the bottles into their respective crates, cleaning the glass shelves, and on the sunday, washing the boss's car, which I think was a white and yellow Ford Zodiac. I got paid 10 shillings, and had to give my mother 7shillings and sixpence. The owners at the time, (1962-64) had two Labrador dogs, one black and one golden, they were called Bass and Worthington!! I remember even earlier than this, I think the late fifties, we used to wait for the Beer delivery men to arrive, and we would help them to reload all the emties, and if we found any crisp packets left in the tins that they came in they lets us keep them. We also had many a good day's fishing in the brook, catching amongst other thing's Pike, Roach and on many occasion tried to catch an Eel that lived under one of the footbridges with a fork on the end of a stick, Always got away though.
