caleb wells Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 When i worked at Thomas Turton in the 60s, I used to have to attend to wooden casting patterns which were kept in a former pub in Parkwood Springs. The pub had been called 'The Reindeer', does anyone remember this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Days!! What is your name l went to Hill foot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
