This former bus garage in Rookwood Road operated about 66 trolleybuses on routes 543/643, 647, 649/649A and 683 between February 1939 and July 1961. Motorbuses then took over operating on routes 67, 149, 243/243A, 253 and N83. During the 1960s, the motorbuses operated were Routemasters, and the rear-engined Atlanteans and Fleetlines. Closure of this garage took place in November 2020 and its future is uncertain, although it may be demolished for housing.
