Blackheath - G.P.O. Postmen
A photo I took back in 1951, I started work there in 1950 but being transferred to Birmingham I took this photo before I left. It's 61 years ago but going from left to right the ones I remember are ...

Behind them is a mound of coke which we used to fire the boiler for the central heating.In the background are the offices of Dallows wood works with the warehouse for the timber on the other side.If you know Blackheath it's changed quite a lot .Where Dallow's was, is now just houses
