The Congregational Church in Grove Crescent was built in 1866-7 at a cost of £11,500, most of the money lent by William Settles a city merchant. His creation was nicknamed 'Settle's Folly'. It was sold in 1948 and became a furniture factory. It was gutted by fire in 1952 and later demolished.

Western Street Stratford, decorated for King George V's Jubilee. A crowd of people have gathered, maybe for the photographer. Also the men with the horse and cart are looking towards the camera. The 1930s pram seems to contain a large baby but is not clear.
