Was a lovely place to work Dave -you were very lucky!

Not sure about the new bandstand - compare to the 2 photos I've attached -one is a colour postcard of the bandstand as it was in about 1904 and the other shows people at a concert there -Kingston Mill band, June 24th 1899!

The new bandstand is a copy of the one that was erected in the 1930s. I remember that one.
