Trouble at the Rocklands


The Rocklands has been a social club since the 1950’s and was originally called the Rooklands because of the adjacent road. A simple spelling name at the printers gave the club its present name which has stuck ever since. But now there are rumours to turn the club into private housing. With its function room and large car park, the club occupies a fair bit of land. The club itself is being run by a fairly tight committee who have been known to save the club money as much as possible; so this is quite a worrying time for the members who invest in its facilities. Many questions have been asked that haven’t been resolved such as the treatment of abusive members. All the members want is a meeting to be reassured that the club is still catering for its members and that there’s no other ownership of the building. But for all we know, it could be the ramblings of a drunken lunatic. It certainly sounds like it.
