There were many on Plumstead Common too
Thanks, I think that there were quite a lot up there weren’t there? I know that a few on Erindale Terrace and quite a lot on Camdale Road which survived until around the late 1990s. I did look for aerial photos etc from there, but sadly couldn’t find anything.
Lot’s in Eltham. Middle Park and Eltham Common. There were some in the 1st WW and they were known as hutements.
I was vaguely aware of the ones at Middle Park and did try to find a shot from Britain from Above, whilst there are some great shots of Eltham Palace from the right period, the direction is wrong http://www.britainfromabove.org.uk/image/eaw021440?search=Eltham&ref=33
There is a great photo of the on Oxleas Meadows though from around the cafe.
