Eastbury: Eastbury Road

Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 28 Jun 2009

The swift suburbanization of London that happened between the First and Second World Wars accounted for a lot of the development of Eastbury. In 1920 this area was farmland, almost certainly managed by the nearby Eastbury Farm. By 1934 all of the houses on the left side of the road here, and most on the right, had been built.
