Replies: 26 Model Lodging House At Church Views: 27 Posted By Dave Walsh Re: Model Lodging House At Church Still on sale but that's no surprise.

Replies: 26 Model Lodging House At Church Views: 27 Posted By Dave Walsh Re: Model Lodging House At Church I know what you mean Bob-there is a lack of direct evidence from the building itself or anyone with any memories/stories.

Replies: 26 Model Lodging House At Church Views: 27 Posted By Dave Walsh Re: Model Lodging House At Church The rope story is viewed with some scepticism in Rammy although the Scrap Yard guy told me that two elderly ladies turned up one day and related the same tale plus other details re the building.

Replies: 172 New pub opening . Views: 173 Posted By Dave Walsh Re: New pub opening . The description by Guiness of fast food outlets with alcohol attached is undeniably accurate but they are popular so there's the rub. Same problem in Rammy I suppose but the one place operating like...

Replies: 87 Church's Historic Waterfront Views: 10,002 Posted By Dave Walsh Re: Church's Historic Waterfront I agree with that analysis of the problem Neil especially re planning/listing but demolition of your own inheritance isn't a solution.
