  9. A tangent to the main thread: M.R.D.Foot in his autobiography "Memories of an S.O.E. Historian" (2008) says that on 3 March 1939 he was posted to the 35th Searchlight Battalion of the Royal Engineers (Territorial Army) which had been formerly been the 1st Surrey Rifles, 21st London Regiment. In March 1939 the unit had two drill halls: dull yellow brick, cold and draughty buildings in Flodden Road, Camberwell, and a brand new building in Lordship Lane, Dulwich. Was the 1938 or early 1939 new drill hall on the High Wood site or elsewhere on Lordship Lane?

  20. Since the thread about Alleyn's School's anti-social behaviour in having noisy fireworks and loud music late on a Sunday evening I've been trying to work out what Alleyn's contributes to our local community. I having difficulties in identifying anything, so please help and set my mind at rest. Does it pay local taxes? Does it employ local residents? Does it get its supplies from local businesses? Does it provide scholarships/bursaries for local children? Does it allow local residents use its facilities for free or at marginal cost? [EDIT: One spelling error and one typing error corrected in deference to one better educated and with more dexterity than me.]
