Former pub converted to a mosque, Kingsway, Luton
So a local man told me. Google Streetview shows that in 2009 this was the Kingsway Arms. In 2012 the conversion of the closed pub began. There is an extensive single-storey building on the north side, perhaps the former function room which (speculating) is now the place of worship. The part shown in the photograph may be the community centre. The view is across Connaught Road.

Dunstable Road entrance to Maidenhall Primary School, west Luton
I was a pupil here briefly in the early 1950s. Schools didn't have slogans then; now it's 'Believe Achieve Inspire'.

Demolition at Maidenhall Primary School off Dunstable Road, west Luton
Works for the Projects Design and Delivery Team of Luton Borough Council were being carried out by Gray and Sons Builders Ltd. I was a pupil here briefly in the early 1950s. The 'Maiden' element of the name may recall Maiden Common Farm, shown nearby on late 19th-century maps.

Kingsway Recreation Ground, west Luton
I remember as a child, in the late 1940s perhaps, seeing football being played on the Rec. Photographed from near the Dunstable Road entrance. Winsdon Hill on the skyline.
