Title: The Grove, Chalvey, Slough. About 1913 [Go to resource]
Description: The view is from the junction with Brook Street, now renamed The Green. In the distance on the left can be seen the Cape of Good Hope, a licensed 'Beer Seller' shop on the corner of Grove Road and The Cape of Good Hope Road . On the right is a recreation ground. The houses in the photograph and the surrounding area were demolished in about 1960 to make way for new development. The area is now covered by Ladbrooke Road and land north of Chalvey County Infants School. In the photograph each house has its own stone entrance paving slab and these were usually scrubbed and whitened as a symbol of pride by the occupant.
