WEST HOVE

Although more than 50 years separate these two photographs, the wooden scaffolding and planks are common to both building operations. This photograph shows the erection of two semi-detached houses in St Keyna Avenue, during 1929, when the large area between New Church Road and Kingsway was being built on. It is said that these are the last houses on the west side, the present numbers 64 and 66.
