BR. Somebody need to install a gate at the Gilford line. There are no gate at the end of Hoyt Road or Liberty Hill Road. That should prevent access from Gilford.

I remember using the Hoadley Road extension in the late '60's. That was when the Big Bananna was open and Smith use the road to haul his produce. We may be talking about the wrong road?

Lyman Rice had a public road through his property from Parade Road to Hilliard Road at the Weirs. It was a popular road to get to the Weirs from the 106 part of town. Laconia stop maintaining it in the early 70's. It became a class VI road. Some kid almost killed himself on that road so the city placed huge boulders across both entrance. Today it is a popular hiking, biking and ATV trail. Lately the new owners put up a landscaping business on the property and posted no trespassing signs long 106 so folks can't park on his property. At first he tried to block access to the road but could not because it is still a public way.
