London Road, Mitcham
A Memory of Mitcham.
I was born in Mitcham in 1947 and have happy memories of growing up there. This picture is taken on London Road (the A217) from a spot between the Cricket Green and Fair Green. In those days, there was a small garage with a petrol pump actually on the pavement. Close to that, just behind where this photo was taken, was the telephone exchange. I still visit the area every now and then, but it has changed a great deal from the time this photo was taken. In those days, the traffic would carry on through the Fair Green (pictured ahead) onto the Swan and Tooting. On the other side of the Green was the Majestic Cinema (on the right) then as you carried on you passed Woolworths, then the swimming baths and the library on the right, with Trings on the left.
