c. 1960. There was a Broderick School, and then a Stranraer School. It looks likely that they were in the same building. When the building was made into two dwellings they took these names?. |

Hillview Nurseries Dickie Downes bought The Limes sight unseen for land for 60,000 sq ft of greenhouses for tomatoes. When he saw how big the house was he turned it into Catisfield Country Club
