It was my Dad who told me about it 30 years ago. He worked in the parks department at the time and had a lot to do with playgrounds and groundworks in general. I guess the formula could have changed in line with modern rules.
Like you say, I probably wouldn't whittle a spoon from it to stir the bairns porridge :)
