Passage linking North Road with Doctor's Commons Road, Berkhamsted
The area of grass to the left of the passage is where the air raid shelter referred to in 1970 see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1764041 was situated. Its exact position was just to the left of the raised flowerbed. To the right of the passage, over the wall, two houses form part of Ilex Court

Ronhead, Montague Road, Berkhamsted
My paternal grandfather moved to Berkhamsted from Wallington, Surrey in the mid 1910s so that his two sons could attend Berkhamsted School. Ronhead is the left hand part of the semi in this view. The former owners of this house were a family called Leys, whose son (Colin McLaren) appears on this link http://www.bedfordregiment.org.uk/8thbn/8thbtnofficersdied.html

Passage linking North Road with Doctor's Commons Road, Berkhamsted
The passage crosses a cul-de-sac (which is the sealed surface in this view) sometimes known as Angle Place but more commonly as Montague Road. Back in 1970 see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1764041 the street light seen then has been replaced by its modern equivalent. The furthest house on the right is part of Ilex Court, which was built on the site of the 1970 house

The merged school changed its name back to the original Berkhamsted School in December 2008.
