    It all brings back memories. I lived in Norton Road and while walking the family dog with my father early one morning we found a body in Mary Stevens park lake of a man wearing a kilt . He had committed suicide . It was around 1963. I also helped build a canvas canoe and we trialed it on the lake. I can also remember the 1962/3 winter when I spent months coming down the hill from Love Lane all the way to the lake every night after school. I was brought up in Amblecote and ended up in engineering in Cradley Heath for 50 years. I can remember the coal mines over what became Withymoor housing estate as I used to do cross country running from King Edwards Grammar school rugby pitches behind Amblecote church. Where the engine sheds were. Many memories.

    This vid takes me back. Living in Pedmore Fields as a kid we played in Stevens park all time. Later on I played football for Lye Town and we used to train in the park running up and down those hills. Happy days. Thanks for posting Drew
