During WW2 an anti-aircraft gun was sited at this corner. |

There were twelve parallel roads of Victorian terrace houses running between Kingston Road and Bushey Road - locally known as "The Apostles". You could buy an Apostle house! |

Originally a 'cattle arch' so that livestock could move between fields either side of the line. The step in the roof bears witness to the railway being built in 2 stages. |

There is a fascinating piece of film on the Pathe archive, here: http://www.britishpathe.com/video/bells-peel-warning-wimbledon In the 60's the underpass at Raynes Park was closed for a while and this arch became a local diversion. Bells were strung across the road on both sides to give an "overheight" warning. |
