Pictures from the Oak Park demolition

image003

if you’re worried about the pair of socks you left in your locker, it’s a bit late now. Image kindly supplied by David Evans.

The young David Evans was yesterday a very busy chap indeed – not only did he give a very successful talk at Walsall Wood Library (which raised £40 for Macmillan by the way, so nice one and thanks for that) but he also swung past the old Oak Park Recreation Centre to take some pictures of the site as it’s being demolished.

The Recreation Centre, which was out of use after being replaced by a new state of the art facility behind, was due to be knocked down soon in any case, but a fire there last week forced the Council’s hand and men with large tools have been working there ever since.

I’ve had a few requests for pictures, so David kindly obliged. As you can see, they aren’t hanging about and the centre won’t be here much longer.

Cheers to David for making a photographic record – if you have anything to add, please do: BrownhillsBob at Googlemail dot com.
