SW6.871 is a former Melbourne Tram that was part of a project where Community groups could aquire one of a number of stored Trams and use them for new purposes.
Terang is a small town in Victoria's South West and the local RSL branch aquired 1941 SW6.871 to display in front of the local RSL buildings within their memorial garden.
The tram was placed in 2019 and the club has set up a War memorial display inside the Tram.

Walled garden
Yesterday I made a visit to Fulham Palace (SW6) and what a hidden gem it is. I arrived just in time to join a taster tour with Chantel one of 250 volunteers at the Palace, it left me wanting to go back for the full tour.
With archaeological evidence of Neolithic, Iron Age and Roman settlers and the foundations of a medieval palace under the East Lawn, the present site of Fulham Palace is steeped in history.
From around 700, when the site was acquired by Bishop Waldhere, it served as a Bishop’s residence for over 12 centuries. At least since Tudor times, Fulham Palace was the Bishop of London’s country home, providing the Bishop and his family with a healthy rural retreat in summer months.
The Manor of Fulham was bought by Waldhere, the Bishop of London, from Tyrhtilus, the Bishop of Hereford, about 700AD. The Manor covered the whole of what is now Hammersmith and Fulham, Ealing, Acton and Finchley. The Bishops owned other manors in Middlesex, Essex and Hertfordshire.

Nearest tube is Putney Bridge on the District Line and then a very nice 10 min walk along the river though Bishop's Meadow (park).
By the way it's 'Free' to enter.
One of the biggest and reportedly best primary schools in the borough, with a roll of more than 400 children. Yes it's not a shop , but surely it provides an invaluable service to the many customers who have crossed it's threshold in the past 100 years.

Stephendale Road SW6 (Monday 4 June). Tim Whenman, Tony Mogg, Jemma Mogg, Annie-May Mogg and Winifred Mogg enjoy the day.
Normally this road is occupied by buses which starts their journey in near by Putney bridge. This day no one is moving and you can see people walking on the road.
