PHOTOGRAPH DETAILS
DescriptionOn the chevron is a pair of red dividers denoting planning in general and alluding to Ryde Council’s Housing Scheme which operated at the end of the Second World War. Between 1945 and 1952 a total of 599 houses were built by Council itself and a further 360 were built under the Ryde loan scheme. The scheme helped Ryde win a local government award in 1946 for its ‘outstanding enterprise and truly amazing efforts in the betterment of its area’.
