[Vivienne14]

This shows Linwood Road c1921 from the junction with Dawson Road - I think. The house(s) to the right might have been demolished (maybe WW2 damage perhaps ?).

There are a number of name plaques along this road. On the right of the photo : Blackwell Villas (above #12 and #14), Pamela Villas (above #16 and #18), Alfred Villas (between #26 and #28), Victoria Villas (between#30 and #32), Gordon Villas (between #46 and #48)

Plaques on the left: Dunchurch Villa (#25) Priory Villa 118 (#27), Cefnhendre House (#49),Hawthorn Villas (between #51 and #53), Pine Wood Villas (between #59 and #61), Clent House (#83).
