Children watching boats on Hollow Ponds, Whipps Cross
Here is an undated image of children watching boats on Hollow Ponds, Whipps Cross. It looks like spring or summer. (Image: Vestry House Museum archive)
This photo of Hollow Ponds was taken before all the rain we have had recently. No boats, no children, but not much water either.
Here is a bleak looking Valentin Road, Walthamstow looking towards Wood Street, Walthamstow. (Image courtesy of Vestry House Museum picture archive.) It looks like it was taken in winter.
Then and Now: Valentin Road, Walthamstow looking towards Wood Street in September, 2019 shows a completely different skyline.
