Correct Douglas, Jeff and Stephen Bamber. You had a good view of Tishy's and jacklaw's grandad's pens from their 'veranda' ( a kind of lean-to on stilts) and a panorama of the gypsy caravans.
If you went the length of the veranda and turned the corner there was a mountainous dumping slope of broken bottles from the dairy and the occasional acrid whiff of boiling tripe from the top of Pennington Lane. And Maurice Furlong in the distance, on his way to rob our bommie. Our knotted grass traps never did their job to stop his advance, either.
