Well thank you I appreciate your research. I guess at the moment I will have to leave it at that. but maybe someone else will come up with something, perhaps from their own family. I guess it was kept very hush hush. somewhere I may have a photo of that time, but not sure where, but when I find...

We lived there as a family but it was no doubt a barracks. I visited a few years ago, a very large house with garden. His name was PCB Stringer, he certainly could not afforded to own such a large house.

Have just seen in a note made by a family member that Father re-joined the Army in the Warwickshire Regiment at the Army barracks ie. 44 Flint Green Road. He had previously been in the WW1.

Thank you I remember tanks in the front garden, the soldiers doing target practice, the officers' mess and my father dealing with army equipment and the various soldiers, officers coming and going.

Interesting, thank you.

Thank you very much. Does anybody have earlier photos?

My family lived in 44 Flint Green Road during the 1940's at that time I thought it was an army barracks as I was a child am not sure if it was Home Guard or what. My Farther was a Quartermaster Sergeant. Any information anybody could give me will be much appreciated.

Please can you tell me what was Varna Road like in the 40's ? I had a relative who lived there in 1942 at no 52 and what is it like now? Thank you
