Coronation Day in Wanstead Grove, 1953

Coronation Day at Wanstead Grove.

Ian Genge writes on Voices of Kingstanding: “My mother, Valerie Genge, went to Cranbourne Road Junior School, where the large group photos were taken. The other 2 photo’s (with the modern house in the background) are of my mother & her younger sister & neighbours, & my mom & her sister, in her neighbours garden in Kingstanding. My mother lived with her parents in Wanstead Grove.” He adds that these photographs “were taken just before the Wanstead Grove Coronation Street Party!”
