The original fence

Here it is...this photo was taken looking back up Hazeldene Ave...It ran down the west of Hazeldene Avenue the idea being it marked the boundry of the estate and would keep the kids off the farmers fields (get off moy land) It was soon breached by bounders & ruffians (no doubt from down the bottom) for the purpose of exploration, den building,bonfire night bonfires and trap making... kids used to jump/sit on the top of it to bend it down(it was made of thin wire) to make like hammocks...needless to say I never did this, me being a sensible cub scout type who understood that a fence= a boundry marker for the safety and protection of property and the humble resident...alas now it is no more... the concrete posts still stand like accusing gravestones(I wonder how many there are?-someone please count them)...but they have totally removed any trace of the wire...spot the block of cube flats...the Western Bypass is 50 yards to the right hidden by the trees/hedges they errected to conceal it...
