The War Memorial And Pond 1928
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

This brings back memories of my Grandmother Daphne telling me how her father's company was responsible for building the war memorial and gardens. Wadcrete, which was based over on the Purley Way (adjacent to the Croydon (London) Airport) was owned and run by the Henson family. They helped re-build swathes of South West London and were also commissioned to build the Webb Estate.
