Haddonfield Estate, Bush Road, Rotherhithe, 1959

Haddonfield Estate, Bush Road, Rotherhithe, 1959

 

The Haddonfield Estate was built by the London County Council in the late 1950s to replace houses and a school that had been destroyed during the war.

In the background are the cranes in operation at Greenland and South Docks.

The East London Under-ground Line - very little of which is actually under ground - runs through the foreground.
