Small square lying between West Street and Park Road. Formerly the site of four old cottages which lacking in modern utilities were pulled down in 1931 leaving only the former washroom standing, seen on the right at the end of the square. The area remained derelict for many years until the local council refurbished it and opened it up as a small public area. Not many are around on this day as snow can be seen to be falling, and although not heavy it remained persistent throughout the whole day.
