Smile History of Places You've Lived

Start off with our first purchased House... in Beddington, Surrey. 82 Guy Road next to the River Wandle and off of Beddington Lane a truly pleasant place to live at one time, seems strange now they have put up railings to stop you going in it, accident wise or pleasure wise..both for new safety laws...
Here is the River way way back even before I was thought of...
Very Surprised the wiki web page on Beddington has no mention of the River Wandle..without it, how would transportation of goods have taken place, of course the Mills would never had been built there without water flowing...

also there is a huge amount of photos articles etc on the Wandle River to see, but the painting site I chose as lots of people like also looking at artworks....

The Mill I worked in is now called Wandle Mills but originally named Beddington Mills.
The Mill House, building next right from the Mills was originally called the Mill House.

The link is there for any interest in the History of the Place...

Married in that Beddington Church in 1967..
