A visit to Whyteleafe, Surrey. This is somewhere I have known all of my life, from attending school at the top of the hill to recreation at the Dobbin and enjoying local fish & chips! Great history here, huge growth during Victorian times but also a place for remembrance at St Luke's Churchyard where you will find Airmen's Corner. Using the roundabout as a "hub" I travel a short way north, south, east and west telling the story as I go. Eternal thanks to The Bourne Society who help making the job of research so much easier.
Thank you for watching, I really appreciate it.
