I remember hearing about the ornate features of Billingham town center, I think it may have had an exotic aviary as well as ponds, So myself and my first girlfriend walked from Norton and back in 1971 to have a look. I could have sworn Billingham town center was used in one of Cadburies Chocolate adverts at the time, but of course I was wrong.
