Old photos of Earlsfield

Postby asummersgill on Thu Jan 14, 2010 3:11 pm

Hi

I was wonderring if anyone know where I could obtain a few vintage prints of Earlsfield. Would be interested to see what Garratt Lane etc. looked like years ago.

Cheers, AS

I found this link that contains a lot of old photographs for Wandsworth:

I have a few old postcards I brought from the library many years ago which I have scanned and placed on a web page. The link is:

There is an album in the library which has some wonderful photos in it, and I have a photo of Garratt Lane. It was taken from outside the staton, looking along to St Andrew's church, and features a tram. It is dated 1910.
Now and then postcards come up on ebay.

That is great!

What were they thinking when they got rid of all the Trams?

Mike I really like some of your photos and I would love to get a copy to put in my flat, is it possible for you to email me a picture?

Thanks

And if anyone knows the copyright position then the Earlsfield Wikipedia page could do with some of these photos
