going down the big hill called sutherland road " i think" where the swimming baths used to be there was a park accross the road.

We lived at 251 1965 to 70, it was in the row of houses between Carwood Rd & Canada St.
I remember there being a swing park just below the baths & on the opposite side of the road, don't know your family though.
