Albert Crescent in South Chingford in 1934 (Image: Gary Stone)
The picture of Albert Crescent, South Chingford was taken soon after completion of the subterranean public toilets in 1934.
To the right is the old Royal Albert pub.
The houses to the left were swept away by the end of the decade to make way for a parade of shops. Almost unrecognisable today!
