Reader Comments for Melrose Crescent
Numbers are also confusing and many deliveries complain about being hard to find.
The properties themselves, more so the bungalows, have very limited room inside with the exception of a large kicthen. All bungalows were developed with extra wide doors and wide entrance hall, to home disabled and/or elderly residents.
It is suitably close to the town centre and there are plenty of shops/supermarkets within the vicinity.
Overall, its a quiet street with little comings and goings.

Swing Swang Lane
28th April 2024
I am trying to find out why the lane is named Swing Swang?
It has been known known this since at least 1905 when hedge making contents used to be held here.
Swing Swang is often used to describe a fairground ride. I remember Swing Boats. Were they a bit like this or is Swing Swang another name for swings?
Swing Swangs are also mentioned in connection to orchards. Or were orchards just good places to have swings?
