Title: Dale Rd History
Post by: poor_unfortunates on February 27, 2011, 11:46:33 PM

Can any one advise on whether there used to be a cafe/hotel on the site of what are now the houses along Dale Road? A friend has said they are sure there was but cannot recall. They seem to remember it being very wooded.

Does anyone know/have any more info/pics?

Thanks
