Rodney Burns hey Rod, did the Havills run the garage at Springs
Arlene Hutcheon
Ok. I didn't know them too well, they are 2nd cousins. Thanjs
Rodney Burns
Lyn Mallinson I think so, or maybe the shop. Their house is still there, behind the cafe on the corner, left side of Reefton road.
Linda Skelton
They were our neighbour. Gordon and the Defillipies had a saw mill down past Reid's creek then moved the house to the farm at the junction also ran the garage which would have been behind the photographer in the above photo
Linda Skelton
Should have said owned the garage and farm
I remember it like that too
