On the first section of Club Garden Walk 2nd. building down from Cross Walk it was a blacksmith's as a child i spent many happy moments watching George shoe the horses he was only a small chap the cart horses dwarfed him when he placed the shoe on the horse's hoof the aroma was magic, on the 2nd. section of Club Garden Walk our milk man Tom Stokes stabled his horse the stable building is still there. Ha Happy Days. The archway leading to 2court the back of the arch is bricked up it is now some sort of jeweller the courtyard is still there minus the houses. Keep Safe -
