According to an article in the Sunday Mercury from many years ago, the first person in Kingstanding to own a Rolls Royce was Augustus Wells (his full name was Augustine Lewis Wells).
According to the same article, he was also the first person in Kingstanding to have a telephone.
If there was only one telephone, I haven't a clue how he would have used it.
Augustine owned Warren Farm which was situated at the junction of what is now Charlton Road and Norbiton Road.
I have a photo of a vintage car outside Warren Farm, but whether this is Augustine's Rolls Royce, I have no idea.
Augustine was my Great Uncle.
