Strollers2 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Does anyone remember the park keepers who wore brown uniforms and hats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intexasatthe moment Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I certainly do . Though perhaps not with great accuracy - weren't the clothes a sort of gingery brown and involved plus four trousers ? Or has my mind invented that ?I do remember them being very strict - cycling only allowed on the main road round the edge of the park . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strollers2 Posted February 10, 2019 Author Share Posted February 10, 2019 Yes it was a rough material and in a gingery brown too. There was a lady park keeper who wore a round brimmed hat who was quite stout and very scary to us children. They used to have small wooden huts for the park keepers which were dotted around the park. Thanks for finding the photo. All good memories!
