Comments | I can't match this trough with any in the MDFCTA records. Does anyone know where it was before being moved to its present location? This is possibly MDFCTA structure [1047] which was located at the junction of Eltham, Sidcup and Chislehurst Roads. On page-15 of "Eltham in Old Photographs", collected by John Kennett, there is a photo of this trough. The caption explains the trough at Clare Corner was removed in 1966. It was discovered in a Greenwich council yard and put back on The Green as a flower planeter in 1987. |
