Notes

Oblique aerial photograph by Aerofilms Ltd, 6 October 1926 (Historic England Archive EPW017044). Historic England’s title: “Housing around The Circle and Witton Lodge Road, Perry Common, 1926”. Britain from Above contributors have pinned Hastings Road School on this frame. The “Circle” is Perry Common’s own central circle, not Kingstanding Circle.
