Boleyn Gardens, West Wickham, c. 1950

 

Boleyn Gardens was developed between 1929 and 1934 in the typical West Wickham style.

The road is named after the famous family who married the Heydon's of Wickham Court in the 15th century and later included Anne, Queen of England.

No.10 (left) was the home of Ida Watson, a West Wickham historian, who died here in 1968 in a tragic house fire.
