St Andrews Park

I'm particularly interested in photos of St Andrews Park between 1940 and 1945, particularly any showing:-

Ø the barrage balloon stationed there
Ø the hut that the crew of the balloon used that stood on the Sommerville Road edge of the park
Ø the remains of an elm tree left in the park after the crash of the Wellington bomber

I'm also interested in any photos of the balloons that flew from the Stapleton Road gas works and the Whitehall Recreation Ground.

My website is www.wellingtont2905.co.uk. It explains my interest in finding these photos if they exist.
