More about this scene

to the east, this building is now part of the Corby Health Complex, which includes the Lakeside Surgery and an occupational therapy/health centre, both out of view to the west. The building has since acquired a small extension to the porch area on the right, and another over the doorway at the far end.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I remember this area before it became a park (for the blind?). If I was feeling adventurous I would cross the little stream that ran at the bottom where the gardens are now, sometimes there was a makeshift bridge across it. I used to run all the way down from the top of the hill and leap over it! Then carry on home up Forest Gate Road.
Goodness, I used to climb those frames above the walkway!
