Description: In March 1907 James Elliman handed over 26 acres of land complete with The Barn, Lodge, and fences and trees. He insisted on the recreation grounds being called The Salt Hill Playing Fields. In addition to the total cost of £21,750, he also gave an additional £10,000 to create an endowment fund for the upkeep of the grounds. The road in the foreground is Stoke Poges Lane and the houses on the left are located in Lansdowne Avenue. The railway signal box can be seen in the foreground.
