1950 ca view of Sunday School and verger's cottage. Date based on the row of Austin A40 sedans. Parked there by a dealership? Rental company?
The cottage was demolished and replaced by a 2-storey brick house (in the 1950s by the looks of the design), still referred to as "the cottage" as late as the early 2000s, when it was the "curate's cottage".
Photo source unknown.
