Parkend Recollections (General)

As a child I used to visit my uncle Clifford Cooper he lived in a bungalow on the edge of the forest in Parkend, he had something to do with the timber industry, his forefathers were miners, his wife was Dorothy.

I remember a cinema and a level crossing and playing in the forest, collecting chestnuts that was about 1962, any photos or information would be appreciated.
