Quote by Laurence E Sullivan Director of Operations, "there was a farm where the pavilion stands, looking to the future some more land will be enclosed and a tree planting plan will be launched. The 57 Club is part of H J Heinz."

Later this too was demolished and has been a private housing estate for some years - a great pity and also a crime that the farm and the barn got to be demolished.
