    The schools now go to a place called Kingswood in Denbigh.
    A similar set up to the Colomendy trips.

    Apparently it is a welsh name for "dovecote", or a house for doves...

    (similarly in Cornwall: colomen & ty = dove house).
    I came up with the dovecote explanation too, not sure yet though

    Let the Colomendy thing go they were just talking about a few pics and it does not matter, I put the site up here as it was interesting.

    I thought scouts for a few pics too. I was in the Girl Guides, in Aigburth but we had little tents, never left the grounds![COLOR="Silver"]

    Well, that ws interesting but copyright so I took it down. Seems Dingle Vale school went first
