A splendid #WednesdayWalk along the River Wandle this morning. Introduced another #walker to this lovely area. #WandleTrail #RiverWandle #RiverWalk #Sutton #Beddington #walking #strava

Municipal guide cover of the day: The Borough of #Beddington & #Wallington, 1962.

This Surrey Borough, whose territory was subsumed into Greater London in 1965 and moved under the (then) new London Borough of #Sutton, celebrated its Silver Jubilee in 1962.

The coat of arms features an aircraft reflecting the fact that most of the airfield of Croydon Airport was within the Borough (and not Croydon). It survives in the coat of arms of the present day London Borough of Sutton.
