Some of our Porty school class went on a few expeditions up to Woolies sample the radical new idea "Pick'n'Mix" back in the day. Free if you could run fast enough, I understand

I remember the Securex building which was just out of the picture to the right and the market garden, which took up much of what is now the retail park, but not the white building.

I can't think what that building was. The roundabout used to be a lot smaller than that as well. Caused mayhem at times as cars used to drive over it without looking right 😂

Maroon Sailor Posted October 22 Author Posted October 22 Did we ever find out when the building on the corner across from the Tynie Arms came down? Look at the state of this area now compared to then
