Our resident historians are on the case, and the history of the Green will be posted here when it is complete.

 

In the meantime, we are on the lookout for any old photos of The Green - including any pictures of the air raid shelters underneath, or the period when it was completely enclosed by a hedge!

 

If you know of, or have any photos that you would be happy for us to display in this section to help record The Green's history, we would be most appreciative. You will receive a photo credit to mark your contribution.

Snow on Twickenham Green - photo undated but looking at the school uniforms and the size of the trees, we think the photo is about 100 years old. Photo kindly supplied by Heather and Geoffrey Morgan.

 

 

Almost the same view as the photo above, taken in the snow on Twickenham Green 2009. Look how the trees have grown since the photo above was taken.
