Great set of pics.

First two are St Georges (old Steeple) with The Anthony Rawlins Alms Houses before they were modernised. The second one shows the Houses attached, have you a year for that Falkor.

Nice image of Beckenham Place and a great one of the High Street. On the corner is Verneys Restuarant, upstairs was a function suite. I held my wedding reception there some 27 years ago. There were over 100 people there who all drank like fishes and the bar bill that was paid by me was £260.

I feel that a plaque should be mounted there to record that feat, the round that is.

No year captioned anywhere for the second or third, unfortunately.
