 All that remains of Honeybun's Farm. The farm house has gone, but there remains some outbuildings. They are probably being utilised for materials storage by the developer but they are also very soon to go. |

It seems certain it's a Monday ... by the washing! |

Dear all, Thanks for looking at this one - although the Rooks Hill/Parkway junction is tempting, this doesn't seem to be Welwyn Garden City. The original Aerofilms Ltd Register entry is blank, with shots before and after labelled Harrow. Do you have any other ideas where this might be? Katy Whitaker Britain from Above Cataloguer. |

Ok it is the junction of Ford Close and Charles Cresent with Lascelles Ave. The Dorma-bungalows are still there on the 1945 Google earth view but are now flats |

Dave Brunt, thank you! Lascelles Avenue it is, under construction. We'll update the catalogue and the revised record with the correct location will appear here in due course. Yours, Katy Britain from Above Cataloguing Team Leader |

BigglesH may very well be correct that this is Welwyn, but the coordinates given don't match the picture. That location can be seen here: http://wtp2.appspot.com/wheresthepath.htm?lat=51.79388335661288&lon=-0.18318564508619295&gz=18&oz=8>=1 All the houses in the photo have hipped roofs whereas none of them do in the present-day aerial view. Also, there is a crossroads in the photo which is not present at the suggested location. There are houses with hipped roofs elsewhere in welwyn (e.g. in the Peartree district) but I've not been able to find a good match with the photo. |

I did not claim it to be Welwyn, nor did I set the location Lat/Long. |

It seems unlikely that this is Welwyn Garden City as very little existed in 1921 and nothing matched this road arrangement then. |

Estate being built - some occupants (see washing drying) but back gardens are a mess. |
