Remembering Ealing W5

A Memory of Ealing.

We lived in Warwick Road Ealing W5 from the very early 1960s. I remember a real French onion seller doing his rounds on a bicycle and blind first world war veterans selling matches outside W H Smith. Also the final years of real smog when taxis wouldn't take you anywhere from the cab rank on Haven Green. The drinking fountain on the Common holds a special place in my memory. Apparently when small and running I collided with it and was knocked out.

The cab rank on Haven Green was painted green.
Lammertons the large furniture shop had a horse drawn removal van as late as the fifties. People used to stop to watch it pass.
