MPX5136243: Doing it 'just like the builders do', a hive of industry going on in the new children's playground opened on the blitz site of St. Luke's Church, Peckham, London. The playground has been opened by the Camberwell Playgrounds Committee, who have spent over ï¾£50 fencing the site and providing tools for the kids to use. Each night at 5.30pm when the playground is opened by one of the supervisors, the children clamour to be first so that they can have their favourite tool. A bucket of cement is handed out and with sand from the play pit and bricks from the site, the work in progress commences. Some of the boys prefer to play soldiers with guns which have been given. 13th May 1948 (b/w photo) / Bridgeman Images
