    Yeah, like I said, the guy was a bit odd, he figured he'd take his favourite features from every different style of architecture and chuck them all together.
    If memory serves the place was only built about 18-20 years ago, and it definitely looked like that from day one.

    Since Neels is the only one having any luck figuring it out, I'll give a little more info to give him some competition... It's within a few km of Oxford, roughly halfway between Oxford and the area hinted at in my first clue. As I'd said, the name of the road is hinted at in my clue, specifically the section about one of the worlds oldest board games.

    A barrel maker is also known as a Cooper

    That was a cool tag, I was getting there with the Gamman and had Coopers Creek.
    As for the new tag, well it might just cause a stink round here.

    Did anyone used to drink that?

    One of our customers used to transport water in for them from somewhere down south where the water was supposedly the best in the country

    I wouldn't have had a clue where the new tag was, until I drove past this week and saw it, and the assortment of cars etc stuffed into the building.

    There used to be serious competition between Double R and Alexanders out at Kaiapoi back in the day......

    Another predominantly regionally popular fizzy drink. Much the same as Foxton Fizz or Wests.

    Glass bottles are the best.
