Why "Snaprails"?
A number of years ago I needed a name for an internet account and picked the name of the park near my house as it was unlikely to have been used elsewhere.
Later I registered it as my domain name and 20-odd years later I'm still attached to it.
The park and surrounding housing areas were once the grounds of a large house and are now a public open space called Snaprails Park.
The gate lodge to the house still stands at what is now the entrance to the park, although for a while it was unoccupied, vandalised, and looked like it might not survive it has now been re-occupied and refurbished into a home again.
The building is shown in the pictures below, the first image is of an oil painting made c.1920, the second was taken by me a few years ago.
