Mod Wall

In the early to mid 1960s High Wycombe Town Hall was a wonderland for the emerging music scene. On Tuesday nights for 7 shillings and 6 pence you could see improbable acts like The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Animals, Yardbirds Spencer Davis Group etc, etc. Even on one momentous occasion The Ike and Tina Turner Soul Review. Does anyone have any memory of any of we young oiks who would gather beforehand at "the Mod wall" surrounding the library, on the corner of the high st and (was it) Amersham Hill Road?
