Comment by Christine Killick on July 24, 2022 at 14:24: Yes Joyce that is what we called them.

Comment by Lydia Walter on July 27, 2022 at 7:17: Memories flooding back: I remember standing behind the low metal fence, holding my mum’s hand and looking at the fairy houses with awe and wonder. I was particularly fascinated by the fairy house with the double cone roof. Such simple pleasures and entertainment.
