From the map below c 1955 (no 11 in red), i reckon that the lady is in the yard shared by no 10 & 11. No 11 was occupied from 1950-1967 by Margaret & James C Gorrey and in 1857-62 by Mary J Goode. No 10 was occupied from 1920 to 1957 by Harriet Hinton and Kenneth and Dorothy Bradley in 1957-62. I have a feling the drawers belonged to Harriet

I remember years ago my local Council ordering me to take down from the washing line my ex-partners bloomers as they were a danger to passing aircraft. Well, I do live on the top of a high-rise and our local RAF base is only 1 min away by jet fighter.
