Found this link on the book by Steve Grindlay

I think Steve Grindlay has all the history about the chapel, a Wesley chapel which was part of the Methodist movement as John Wesley was a founder.

My family lived at 1 Hamburgh Place which was later named Suncroft and i was led to believe this too was next to the chapel? What is your family surname? My Great Grandfathers sister May Eade lived there and later married someone called William Miles. I wonder if May and William are your relatives ...

My mothers cousin Edna Towers was killed in the neighbouring Lee Green when a bomb was dropped on the school there.

Does anyone have any information about Hamburgh Place in 1901?
I am especially looking for old photos of a church on the corner of the road.
Thanks.

Where people in Sydenham evacuated as my family lived close by?

Was there a railway called S E C in the early 1900's in Sydenham as my Great Grandmother is listed as working there? Her family (Eade family) lived in Sydenham.

I have just looked up my family and they were living at 2 Prospect Road, Sydenham in the 1911 census. Arthur Eade was a watchman And his wife Delphine worked for S E C railway They had a son Arthur and Daughter May. I would be interested to find out more about the road they lived in also if there is ...
