They had huge dances and balls at the hall next door, great suppers and one of my fond memories as a kid was of the baker coming over to the supper hall and baking his sausage rolls on a long pallet in the big oven there.

I can imagine the angst of the line not being completed but then again rail was already into decline by the time they abandonded the project so I can understand them making that choice.<br /><br />But I also understand annoyance by the locals, after all their countryside was scarred getting the line started but with none of the benefits.

Funny how people can just abandon projects like that and not be concerned that they will leave whole communities in the lurch.Winamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01065947445339036623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-81099665581339014582012-12-06T01:57:47.188+11:002012-12-06T01:57:47.188+11:00As always, I like the details you show us.As always, I like the details you show us.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15783877262954668959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-14398046747653661802012-12-05T23:51:58.708+11:002012-12-05T23:51:58.708+11:00It sure has character and what a good idea to turn...It sure has character and what a good idea to turn it into a gallery, Methinks a lot of work.diane bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12002292118984909883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-34719535417753289662012-12-05T22:20:12.686+11:002012-12-05T22:20:12.686+11:00At first I thought butcher, then the peep through ...At first I thought butcher, then the peep through the window and now I think a bakery.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03671691808322770184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-14725012688363313582012-12-05T20:21:59.389+11:002012-12-05T20:21:59.389+11:00What a lot of work to restore - but what potential...What a lot of work to restore - but what potential!!
