Looking towards Rita where the trenches continued. This is where the train would move up to the lift hill in later months

You have reached the Peterborough Road entrance at the far side of the park.

This is a sheltered bus stop that’s located in a part of London peppered with Fulham FC’s supporters, Chelsea and Brentford fans be warned.

One starts with an idea and before you know it a few hours have gone by...

Oswald Stoll and the Armed Services.

Last week I made a visit to a building I spotted from the number 14 bus coming back from Fulham Palace. I didn't have a clue what this building was, so I retraced my steps. I'm glad I did. From the photographs l took you will see why it caught my eye.

Firstly I would like to thank Becky Frankham, Communication Officer from Stoll housing for meeting me and showing me around the site.

So what I saw was the Sir Oswald Stoll Foundation in Fulham SW6.

Stoll was a philanthropist who donated the land in 1916 for the Sir Oswald Stoll Foundation, a charity in Fulham, for disabled soldiers returning from World War I and their families. The foundation continues to house disabled ex-servicemen and women to this day, but in addition also provides supported housing for veterans suffering from mental ill health, and those who, having left the Forces, have found themselves homeless.

So who was Oswald.

Sir Oswald Stoll (20 January 1866 – 9 January 1942) was an Australian-born British theatre manager and the co-founder of the Stoll Moss Group theatre company. He also owned Cricklewood Studios and film production company Stoll Pictures, which was one of the leading British studios of the Silent era. In 1912, he founded the Royal Variety Performance (originally Royal Command Performance) a now-annual charity show which benefits the Entertainment Artistes' Benevolent Fund.

Stoll worked with the theatre architect Frank Matcham on several theatres, including:

Nottingham Palace (1898).

Hackney Empire (1901).

London Coliseum (1904).

Bristol Hippodrome (1912).

Gone but not forgotten. this shop is now a residential bed-sit. It has net curtains through which you can see a double bed where the counter used to be.

It must be a dog's life, having to share your lunch with an antiques dealer.

This was all set to be a mini-supermarket. It was fitted out but had little stock and was never open for business.
