Description: | The Pavilion Excursion Grounds in Eastcote were hugely popular in the 1920s and 30s. It was the Alton Towers of its day. Special trains were run from central London, and thousands of people queued for the rides.
These children were at the Pavilion as part of the Shepherd's Bush Kiddies Outing. They are waving to the photographer above them, who is possibly on one of the rides.
The Eastcote Pavilion Grounds had disappeared by the end of the 1930s, when the area developed as a residential suburb. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Leisure | Temporal: | 25 Jul 1933 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
