Walking around Coleraine

Circus comes to town

Circus comes to town

I remember when the Circus came to Coleraine by train in the 1970's. The kids would make a beeline for the oval. Sometimes you could pick up a job and get paid for feeding the horses. They would water the animals at Bryans Creek. The elephants were a sight, wallowing in the water!
