Fascinating. As a Bromley lad l am aware of these ancient hamlets you mention - but also one more that has disappeared: the hamlet of Widmore near Widmore Road. There are a cluster of medieval houses still there and used to be a pub (Bird in Hand) but that is now a private house.
Very weird water tower. Strange that its legs taper towards the bottom. Must have been intended as a visual gimmick, I see no engineering justification. And they whatever cost more than straight ones.
Hi Malcolm

As architects of the Arkley water tower (and its unique counterpart at Horstead in Norfolk) we now wholly regret our actions and wish we'd had the benefit of your armchair expertise in 1965.
I lived about a mile from Newyears Green until around 30 years ago. It was thoroughly miserable then, and I’m not at all surprised to read that it was still miserable 25 years later.
That’s no water tower

Walthamstow Village? I jest of course
