Forest Green, The Common c.1955

More about this scene
Moving east towards Leith Hill, but still south of the woodland that covers the greensand hills, the tour reaches Forest Green, a hamlet scattered around an extensive green. This view east of the 1897 church shows the cottages and the post office, now closed; the telephone box has been removed and the post office converted to a house, called unsurprisingly The Old Post House East. The cricket pitch beyond the last house was laid out in the 1920s on part of the common.
