Any local history buffs here?

These shots and more are available here http://www.britainfromabove.org.uk/asearch?search=hayes%20middlesex

These were taken in the 1920's

EMI Factory Looking North Keith Road is yet to be built and the old brickworks can be seen alongside the canal centre right.

Same but from a different angle. Albert Road is present but still not Keith, the Fairey Aviation factory can be seen bottom centre and Dawley Road is largely undeveloped.

Same View looking East. More of Hayes Town evident at the bottom of the shot. Large building (Cinema?) evident at where the junction of Pump Lane would be built. Jim can be seen entering the old Working Mans club building next door. ;)
