Two views of Welling High Street in 1951.

1. Looking west towards Welling Corner showing the Embassy Rooms and Dance Hall on the left, which was built during the development in the 1930s.

The Embassy was an extremely popular dance hall and one which was very well known in South East London.

It eventually closed down in the 1960s when this part of Welling was redeveloped to make way for more retail outlets.

2. Welling High Street looking west towards Welling Corner from roughly where the Royal Arsenal Co-operative Society shop was located, down to Barclays Bank, which is the building with the distinctive hexagonal roof on the left in the distance.
