Alabama Street, Plumstead
Alabama Street has, like much of this part of Plumstead, Victorian houses on either side of the street except for a gap between Lucknow Street and Pegwell Street. On either side of Alabama Street there are terraces of modern houses. The reason is that at 20.00 hours on 20th March 1941, a high explosive land mine came down here, killing a total of 27 people. Two gravestones to some of them can be seen at https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6466124 and https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6493852

A flying pig
The pub is called 'The Who'd 'a' Thought It' so a flying pig on the sign seems right. This is on Timbercroft Lane near Plumstead Common.

Autumn on Plumstead Common
Plumstead Common is as near as the North of England you can get in London. It has ravines, steep steps and houses built up hillsides. It also has excellent views across to the River Thames and to north-east London. In this view, Warwick Terrace is behind the tree.

Autumn colours on Plumstead Common
Plumstead Common was purchased for the people in 1877. Before that, the parish council had grazing rights and free access, even though the land was owned by Queens College, Oxford. From 1871 the college had allowed the Army access and it was largely turned into a military training ground. This led to a storm of protest and a procession to the Common took place. Their leader was temporarily imprisoned and further protest took place until an Act of Parliament authorised purchase of the Common by the Metropolitan Board of Works. This autumnal view looks from Warwick Terrace towards The Slade.
