Probably a load of cows it was a farmers field till 1969 and my childhood house was not built till the 1950's no idea what it was before the post war building boom.

Mine was a Coalyard/railway sidings until the Beeching era. Have no real interest in ancestors and where they lived etc.

We used to live in an old water tank on a rubbish tip. We got woken up every morning by having a load of rotting fish dumped all over us!
