Child hood memories,

My parents owned the large fish and chip shop and deli which once stood on the corner of Eskgrove St and Lytton Rd. I can recall living in our home at 7 Eskgrove Street (no longer standing) and spending the bulk of my formative years playing and frolicking in Mowbray Park. My sister and I spent many hours fishing from the jetty adjacent to the Churchie Rowing Shed. In those days Mowbray Park was a was a wonderful place lined by majestic trees and adorned by the statue of a Soldier and two cannon commemorating those lost during the great war. I still often think back on those days with much fondness. Please do this wonderful place justice in the new plan and return it to its former grandure.
