This bit of the site looked as if it had been a tennis club or something similiar in pre war days., I remember there were two burnt out railway carriages that has probably been used as club houses. Impossible to spot in the photo. .

Huge bomb damage site between Barrington Road & St James Crescent. Known by all the kids in the area as'Fairyland' It was a fantastic playground, a complete wasteland with derelict houses and piles of rubble, quite dangerous but nobody worried about such things in those days, The area was redeveloped in the mid 1950s.
