The
Sidcup by-pass was part of a major upgrade
of the London - Folkstone road and opened
in 1926.
It was soon very popular, causing difficulties
for traffic crossing from Sidcup to Chislehurst.
The result was this early example of traffic
lights, newly installed in this photo.
This site is unrecognisable today, with the
six lane A20 burrowing under the A222. Perry
Street is seen passing to the left of the
cottage in what is now the busiest road in
Bromley Borough.
