Daddy Winker's Lane - Ladas Way
Image: © Dean Molyneaux Taken: 9 Jul 2009
This is Ladas Way off Ladas Drive. Locally this has always been known as 'Daddy Winker's Lane'. Having done some research online, the only explanation I've found is that a Mr. Wilson, who once owned the land here had large bushy eyebrows. The area was developed between the 1930s and 1950s. There was once a pond to the left of the image - now under a government office.
