41 Flying Bombs 1945 booklet, a local charity shop find, that lists all of the 41 Flying Bombs that hit Streatham, describing their locations and damage. One landed on Streatham Common neatly trimming all the vegetables that were growing in the wartime allotments which quickly resprouted and the writer reported that the V1 failed to quell the spirit of even British cabbages! I'm tempted to spend a day walking the sites in Streatham with this guide. #V1 #flyingbomb #streatham #ww2 #localhistory #bombdamage #cabbages
