Hatch Lane, Chingford, c1925 looking towards Friday Hill.
A step back in time to when the Hatch was just a small hamlet with a collection of houses, pub and farms.
The boys are feeding horses from fields that stretched as far as the eye could see.
This all changed in the late 1940s when these houses were replaced by the shopping parade you see today.
