There was once an
estate on Parkwood Springs, where the remains of the Ski Village now stand. A
few of the roads are still visible, either half-buried in trees and bushes, or
lined with the temporary homes of travellers.
The Friends of
Parkwood Springs put us in touch with Ray Swift, who grew up on the estate (or
the ‘village’, depending on who you’re talking to.) Ray is a friendly man who
is quick to laugh. He was generous with his time and talked in depth about his
memories, for which we are very greatful. Click here for
