I was brought up there at number 87. My mum pushed me up the hill in my little pram for a good few years, then later in life I used to race my skateboard down with some mates (sitting down of course) smile

It was always derelict until I was about 12, then it turned into the garage it is today. I used to crawl under to get my footy back every so often.
