"Penge, ?fakfield Rd". There is a school in Oakfield Road so this is being
investigated as the possible destination for this bell. The school still exists so the
bell may still exist too. |

| Since Brewery Road and Lakedale Road merge close to where the
Brewery Road Co-op is, it is fair to suggest that these buildings were one and the same
and that the former bells were recast. A No 2 ting-tang clock was also supplied. Fair to
assume they are all lost as above. |
