Sipson, Bath Road, Three Magpies c1912

The rural scene depicted in this postcard has now been obliterated by Heathrow Airport. The Three Magpies is directly next to the airport. It is amazing it has survived. It would have been demolished if the proposed third runway had been approved. All of the other buildings in the postcard including the chapel on the right have gone.

Barnes, South-West London, Church Road c1910

Postcard by Young & Co of Teddington. Unfortunately the modern Google Streetview of Church Road does not show the exact viewpoint as the postcard, which is a little further back.
