Description: | Somers Road runs from left to right across the centre of this photograph. The parish church of St. Peter can been seen in the bottom right corner, and the four roads left to right across the picture are Hudson, Pains, Playfair and Fraser. When first built in the late 1890s the area and roads around the church were known as St. Peters Park.
Towards the top left of the photograph behind a tower block can be seen The Mystery pub designed by AE Cogswell.
Winston Churchill Avenue now runs diagonally across the top right hand corner of the photograph in the grassy area between the tower blocks.
The council flats were built in the late 1960's to replace roads of small late Victorian housing. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=gateway&f=generic_sitetext%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&cms_con_core_subtype%3acms_con_text_what=copyright&%3acms_sys_group=%22sopse%22 | Rights holder: | Aerofilms | Subjects: | Winston Churchill Avenue Somers Road Playfair Road public houses The Mystery church St Peters Park street Pains Road Fraser Road St Peters | Temporal: | start=1973-01-01; | Source: | Sense of place SE | Creator: | Aerofilms | Identifier: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
