Re: Qu. What do you like about church?
The Council, in its infinite wisdom, knocked down loads of perfectly decent houses and built those awful grey things which are now derelict. There is still plenty that is great, though, and not just the Stag (although I seem to spend most of my time in Church these days in it!). Church Kirk is the earliest church in the area, built originally by St Oswald of Northumbria. The canal was a great place to play - especially the swing bridge.
The best thing of all about Church when I lived there was the people - kind, friendly, and always ready to help a neighbour, and I can't believe that has changed.
