Beare Green, Surrey
« on: Friday 06 May 16 07:29 BST (UK) »
Does anybody have old photos of The Ramblers, Beare Green, Surrey and Stormont Villas, Holmwood, Surrey taken during the war and just after 1940-50. I believe these were demolished in the 1960,s for development and major roads so I,m looking for any helpful maps also. I am particularly interested in the Higgins and Ward family's who were evacuated/ relocated there after bombing in London.

Hi andenh,

I found this website that I thought maybe of interest to you, there is a search box to help you navigate including an interactive map of the area.

Here's an overlay map from around 1900, not sure if it shows any of them on there.
