First Home

Move to 31 Playford Gardens when they were built in 1955 as a kid. I remember the steam rollers still laying the main road, the new doctors at the bottom of Mancroft Ave, with Doctor Page and the open fields at the back where the M5 runs now. Good times and some great friends made there.
