If it hadn't been planted it would have all started eroding like the "eagle" or devils bit as we used to call it. It didn't help that we always used to slide down the side on cardboard every summer, scorching all the grass.
I personally think the coppice is iles better than it used to be, just needs a little trim for all the shortarses to be able to have a view and all the vandals want hanging by their wotsits.

Just a question: is that Peel Park in the foreground? Stanley's old ground?
