The lake in Pymmes Park
Pymmes Lake was once part of the Pymmes Estate. The name came from a wealthy landowner called William Pymme who built a mansion nearby in 1327. In the 16th century the land was owned by Lord Burghley and later by Robert Cecil, Earl of Salisbury.
The northern 33 acres of Pymmes Park was opened to the public in 1897, while the remaining 20 acres was established as an ornamental park and formally opened to the public on 16th June 1906. Victorian and Edwardian visitors to Pymmes Park used the lake for pleasure boating. Rowing boats and children's paddleboats were used on the lake until the late 1970s when the lake was turned into a wildlife sanctuary. The house itself burned down in 1940.

Former site of Regal Cinema
The photograph has been taken at the Angel Edmonton and shows the hideous facade of the supermarket that has now replaced the once Grand 'Regal Cinema' at Upper Edmonton. It demonstrates how many of our historic and dearly loved buildings have been demolished in the face of so called progress. One wonders how the planners could have approved the construction of this building which is a very poor substitute for the previous edifice.
