Wicksteed

When I was small, roundabouts like the one illustrated left were common but are now deemed to be dangerous or at the very least obsolete.

Even so, I was pleased to find this morning that Wicksteed are still alive and well and still offering a full range of playground equipment and a showcase park. Perhaps if had we visited the place when we lived nearer Kettering than we do now, I might have got a bigger picture of a retro-roundabout than the otherwise very suitable one which google offer now.

See next post, the one to come, for relevance.
