This image of The Lodge at The Oaks, Erith was taken circa 1881. The building is currently attached to Trinity School. The photograph features Mary Anna Beckwith (nee Cone) in the doorway with daughter Annie Eliza Beckwith. The man in the middle is gardener John Beckwith (great-grandfather of Clinton Mann), who lived with his family in this building and who worked on the estate of The Oaks. The photograph was probably taken by John's sister, Amelia Beckwith, whose husband John Lyne was a gardener on a Belvedere Estate in 1881.
