Townleygreen Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 in the 8647 one, the fields of Alleyns are at the bottom, with Townley road running up towards the Lane (which is on the right) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kford Posted December 14, 2019 Author Share Posted December 14, 2019 8647 is looking north, with LL bottom right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_the_chin Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 These are really interesting, 8646 clearly shows blitz damage in Melbourne Grove and Playfield Crescent, as also found herehttp://bombsight.org/bombs/12294/Although this site doesn?t appear to show the v1/2 hits so I presume the damage on Crystal Palace Road up from north cross Road were these and not blitz damage.

Townleygreen Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I think it fell on the playing fields of Alleyns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed_pete Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 There's a plaque I think, attached the railings that marks the event and names those that were killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeb Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 hi pete, the plaque is for the bomb on Dovercourt Rd - https://www.dulwichsociety.com/journal-archive/97-2013-autumn/915-dulwich-world-war-ii-commemorative-plaques. I was there when they unveiled it - a slightly odd experience as I was just walking past with my three kidsI'm interested if a bomb dropped on the grounds - never seen this mentioned anywhere else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
