The child is on another shot. She came onto this recreational park and let her dog have a good run around, as others were. The Bolehills are very popular with locals young and old. It was a favourite place of mine, as a child. Waller Road, the road below, leads down from Bole Hill Road to Rivelin Road and then just a few metres down onto Rivelin Valley Road. At one time my Mother-in-law lived in the very lower end terraced house. It was later demolished due to subsidence. Although we were unaware at the time, she lived not far away from the grave of her mother-in-law, in the nearby cemetery.
