Platt Fields Park
I can remember going for a drive on a sunny Sunday afternoon with my mum and dad to Platt Fields Park, sometimes Dad would hire a boat on the lake and take us rowing, I would have a bag with bread in to to feed the ducks. I remember being taken into Platt Fields Hall and looking around at all the beautiful old clothes on show in glass cases and thinking that a lot of them were really ancient. Across the main road was a large strange shaped building we called the toast rack, it looked like one too, I think it was a college. I also remember on our way there we would drive past Princess Christian College for Nannies and often would see the girls out in their brown uniform coats and hats, pushing large coach-built prams.
