Walderslade WWII POW Camp

<< < (2/2)

MartinR:
References put it in King George Street, but thereby lies a problem, there is no such road.  There is a King George Road which in 1947 only ran from Walderslade Road to Gorse Avenue.  There's nothing obvious on the map, it might have been in Weeds Wood (which is now build over with the Yarrow Road area) but I'm afraid it's anyone's guess.  The Overlay maps are available at https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=16.2&lat=51.34695&lon=0.51745&layers=219&b=1&o=100

I recently acquired the attached card from a German POW at Walderslade Camp. I wondered if anyone could tell me exactly where the camp was, please.
