    • Heswall - The Quayside, Parkgate!

    • If you visit Parkgate you'll see signs outside several shops advertising "Parkgate ice cream". Parkgate has long been famous for its ice cream and indeed you can enjoy some very nice locally-made ice cream there just as Sandy, Dave and I did when we visited.
    .
    However, my childhood recollection is of the *real* famous Parkgate ice cream, made in small quantities and sold at the Boathouse café; yellow and creamy and gritty with ice crystals and utterly dreamy when bought for you on the annual Sunday School Treat. Alas, that was long ago...

    At Least Do This: Buy an ice cream. It's really very good even if it isn't the original!
    Alternative: The photo has nothing to do with ice cream. It's just an excuse for another picture of this extraordinary place.

     Hi, I enjoyed your Heswall page, with details of villages in surrounding areas. The tide does still come up to the quayside in Parkgate twice a year!    		RadioGirl Tue Jan 21, 2003 10:18 UTC
