LAUREL VALE SPRING 3772
This is the former Laurel vale School in Crumlin, greatly changed as you can
see from above photograph. My father Tom Grant (an air traffic controller
at Aldergrove) bought the place in 1967 and we moved there from Belfast. This
photograph taken early in 1968 shows the Grant children playing and they are
Donald seated with Lassie the corgi on his knee, Donald's sister Heather is
on the gate and up the tree is Tom. Sadly a few years later the place was
demolished.
LAUREL VALE SPRING 3773
This is the old Laurel Vale Primary School 1980 now privately owned by the
Grant family. The upstairs windows are the same but the downstairs ones including
the door have been changed. The two posts are there but pebble-dashed and
the dog's name was Major although it was a Female!
