Petrol and tyres
The reason for including this very ordinary scene is that it is near the site of the garage built by Frank Smith and Jack Milroy in 1912. Here they created the Orpington Car, a two-seater convertible, with a dickey seat, and a 10 horsepower engine, first shown at the 1920 Motor Show. It won a number of awards, but was killed off by competition from mass production, with the last one being produced in 1925.

Elmcroft Road
The 1896 map shows a road here called Elmfield Road, with no houses and lined with trees. The 1909 map shows the road partially developed (and by now called Elmcroft Road). The houses seen here would seem to date from after World War I. In the background is Perry Hall Road.
