Woodlands Avenue "Cliffs"

When I was growing up on Woodlands Avenue, this land was a tangle of woods and shrubs and muddy trenches- a wilderland! In the way kids name things it was called "The Cliffs" possibly for the slight rise in the land toward the back. It was enclosed with a locked gate and a Keep Out sign that we often ignored. In 1972 I was disappointed to see it had been groomed into this bland field - robbed of all mystery and allure but admittedly more scenic to adults.
