The lower end (i.e the city centre end) of Woodborough Road (B684). This new medium-sized housing estate, completed at the end of 2011, lies immediately beyond the ex-Woodborough Road Baptist Church on the left of this picture. The ex-church now houses a Pakistani cultural centre. No.237 Woodborough Road, a house that used to exist on this stretch of road, was one of Arthur Mee's many homes. Mee (1875-1943), the second of ten children, moved here in 1889 when he was 14 yrs old. He matured into a prolific writer and is perhaps most famous for writing and editing the serialised publications "The Children's Encyclopaedia" and "The Children's Newspaper", although he was also highly regarded as journalist and editor within the London-based newspaper industry. He died in Eynsford, Kent in 1943.
