My Family History Annals by Alf Allen

Poole Road, West Ewell.

Map of Epsom in 2003.
Alf moved to 11 Poole Road, West Ewell, in 1937, aged almost 16.
Danetree Road School remains in 2003, as does the "Hogsmill River" open space.

Maps of this area don't form part of the London A-Z in the 1950's and 1980's, hence the use of a 2003 map.

North Cheam - almost Worcester Park.

The family moved to 11 Wordsworth Drive in 1938, then to nearby Malden Road in 1940.
It must have been much more convenient for Alf to go to work for Kingston's butchers here in North Cheam, rather than cycle to Venners in New Malden.

Alf's family remained around this area - Sutton, Cheam, New Malden, Worcester Park and nearby Wimbledon - for many more years; some are now back living there.
