Waterworks Cottages

A Memory of Purley.

I was a child in the 1960's living in Waterworks Cottages (now a large Tesco). My schools were Tower Hill Nursery (I think) and Margaret Roper.

As the cottages no longer exist, I wondered if anyone had memories or photos of them? I have a hazy memory that they were detached or semi-detached, with an outside toilet and a Rayburn for heating. I also recall the steam trains dispensing their soot on Monday's washing, to chagrin of 'Renie', next door!
