Walthamstow Trolleybus Depot. Built by Walthamstow Urban District Council for the opening of their tramway system on 3rd June 1905. Enlarged in 1928, taken over by LTPB in 1933, and enlarged further for the coming of the trolleybuses which commenced running on 18 October 1936. The depot had a capacity for 107 trolleybuses which operated on seven different routes - 623 Woodford - Manor House; 685 Crooked Billet - Canning Town; 687 Chingford Mount - V&A Docks (via Wanstead Flats); 697 Chingford Mount V&A Docks (via Abbey Arms); 699 Chingford Mount - V&A Docks (via Greengate), 557 Chingford Mount - Liverpool Street; and 581 Woodford - Bloomsbury. On six different occasions the depot sustained war damage - twice during the blitz and for times due to flying bombs and rocket resulting in damage to 20 trolleybuses. Conversion to diesel buses commenced on 14 April 1959 when route 581 was withdrawn, then on 2 February 1960 route 557 disappeared, and the final blow landed a few weeks later on 26 April 1960 with the loss of routes 623, 687, 697, and 699.

Bomb damaged properties over an extensive area of Brettenham Road (note repaired roofs to houses on lefthand side) caused by a pair of Land-Mines dropped in a german air-raid of October 1940 in an entirely residential area. To the right can be seen the temporary pre-fab roads named Penn Road & Norman Road set up in Lloyd Park. William Fitt Secondary School(later Aveling Park School from 1992), was built here in 1962. For some unknown reason the council decided in the late 1990s to rename this original section of Lloyd Park, Aveling Park!

Walthamstow Avenue FC ground - Isthmian League club, which folded in the late 1980's. A strange set of circumstances which began first, with Ilford FC who played near Newbury Park central line station, they then 'merged' with Leytonstone FC (becoming Leytonstone/Ilford) who played at Granleigh Road lefthand side of Gospel Oak railway line. They then saw their ground sold for housing and moved to play at the Avenue's ground, who by that time had become defunct! So it ended with leytonstone/Ilford playing in Walthamstow at the Green Pond Road ground where they finished as champions of the league in 1981. Afterwards that ground was sold off for housing which it is now "Green Pond estate". Conspiracy theory anybody. Will anyone tell the real story of why all the clubs died out in such a fashion and wha happened to the money from the land sales?
