Stoke, 1949

×

Looking at this picture taken in 1949 one could hardly credit the amazing growth of the Stoke and Ridgeway areas since that time. The pic came to us from Mr R. Henderson, 11 Lemari Avenue, Stoke. The diagonal row of trees in the foreground hides the main road and the road cutting across the bottom right hand corner is believed to be Marsden Road. At left can be seen Maitland Avenue leading towards the Ridgeway which at that time was bare paddock.
