Albert Crescent in the 1930s (Image: Gary Stone)
Albert Crescent looking towards Old Church Road, Chingford in the late 1930s used to be a thriving shopping area for the growing population.
Ornate cast iron street lamps that once adorned the road have been replaced today with uninspiring LED lamp posts.
