Is it Park Road in Forest Hill?

Do I win a prize?

That's what it says on the postcard... but I don't know any Park Road in Forest Hill!

I suppose you do, Lee... although it was renamed Waldram Park Road during the 1930s. The telephone exchange is now on the left. The pillar box is still there.

Ah, right, cheers Steve! I guess the house on the left kind of threw me... I know there's a similar view in one of the JC/JS books talking about the telephone exchange, but I doubt that house is there.
