Elim Pentecostal Church
The good people of Letchworth Garden City are so God fearing that this church has now been outgrown and has moved up the road.

Letchworth outdoor swimming pool.
This is usually open from the beginning of June until September. During those long hot summers it is very well attended. The rest of the time.......
This building dates from 1935.

Exhibition cottage, Cross Street, Letchworth Garden City
In 1905 Letchworth Garden City was the venue of the Cheap Cottages Exhibition, the aim of which to design and build a cottage for under £150. 131 residences were built, the vast majority of which are still standing. The image shows a single-storey cottage in Cross Street - the history of the building is recorded at this http://www.exhibitioncottages.info/CottageHistories.html. The exhibition was a phenomenal success, so much so that the exercise was repeated in 1907.

Letchworth City Bowls Club
This is one of the two greens marked on the map at this location and this is the better looking. There is another bowls club in town. I know nothing of the rivalry but it probably gets close to the rivalry between City and United.

Pix Brook goes underground. Footbridge over?
Although the OS maps show Pix Brook as a continuous blue line through the common and a footbridge over at this point, the brook actually goes underground before emerging several hundred feet further downstream and west.
At this point it reminds me of the old folk song: "Please take me where / the sweet river Aire / bubbles and sparkles through Leeds".
