Post or Ask something here in 'Penge' PengeFrankie Laine appeared at the Penge Empire around 1950, admission was free as it was for a filming session. Clearly this was before promotional material was produced for a forthcoming record so I am mystified as to the purpose of the filming. I was only a youngster at the time and I recall Frankie wearing an unfamiliar coloured suite and had to do some retakes of the song "Gandy Dancers Ball" (which I have never heard him sing on record!). Can anyone give me more information such as date and purpose of the filming session etc? Thank you Bob LUCAS Mail-me Post reply -->London Penge 26 Jan Should we remove this post ?

It was joined, i think across the two buildings by a covered bit, and out the back was a sort of temporary building which was the canteen. I remember a sort of modern annex attached to the right hand side and the drive out the front had two entrances, a sort of in and out drive. I went there between 1965 - 1968, but I have been looking for pictures but with no luck. Mail-me Post reply -->London Penge simon cole 28 Jan Should we remove this post ?

Penge WORDSWORTH ROAD PENGE [NOW IN BROMLEY]I have just found a postcard that was sent by my Granny to her Granny "Mrs. Graves" to no.63 Wordsworth Road Penge. It was posted in July 1923.

Post reply -->London Penge Lesley 23 Aug Should we remove this post ? ^ Penge Susan Emmaare the names in the autumn 1923 roll, but in others it is just Emma. To confuse, later directories and rolls have a Miss Emma Graves -- her daughter? Other family members and/or lodgers also appear, but as they could still be alive I won't name them in public.
