Charlton in 1922

The caption on the postcard just says Old Charlton, and the date is given as 1922.

Now that’s not much to go on but it is enough to anchor the scene and allow reflection on how this bit of south east London has changed.

And no sooner had O posted the story John King offered up this view from 2017.

John has a fine collection of pictures from across London and beyond, and thank him for this one.

Location; Charlton
