A 1950's map of south London, showing the location
of Crooms Hill in Greenwich, where William George Allen was living at
the time of the 1881 Census.
Use Google to see the same map of Crooms Hill, Greenwich.
Shooters Hill, Greenwich/Woolwich, showing the Greenwich cemetery - is
this the Shooters Hill cemetery?
The map also shows the location of Shrapnel Barracks in Woolwich, where
Alf was stationed briefly after his return from India - see 1945 >

To the north of Crooms Hill is the modern location
of the Cutty Sark, which my dad believed to be close to the location of
the "Sun"
public house. These two maps show this area in the 1950's and again
in the 1980's.
