EAW022957 ENGLAND (1949). Manor Lane, the Drill Hall (TA Centre) on Lenham Road and the High Street, Sutton, 1949

I used to live in one of the semi detached houses in the bottom left of this shot (facing camera) from 1961 to 1970, when it was known as 'Throwley Road'...during that time the open space immediately behind them was some kind of motor vehicle depot.....the long building going out of shot on the left of the houses was a roller skating rink and left of that was a bakery...the alleyway to the right of the houses went through to the High Street and came out between the local M&S and Woolworths. All that corner has now disappeared under the 'Throwley Way'/ multi storey car park development.

The Drill Hall - Home to 2nd VB East Surreys. It has been demolished and a multi-storey car park now stands in its place. Next door, on the left, is the Drill Hall house.
