Image: © Dave Hilliam Taken: 10 Apr 1938
Rear garden on the brand new house in April 1938. The backs of the houses are those in Lime Tree Grove, with one of the old Lime Trees showing above the one on the right. The ground was full of rounded pebbles that have been collected to make a makeshift pathway. Dad used say that a cart track ran across the middle of the garden, but it is not evident in the photo.
