The long building at the eastern end of Southorn Playground was the War Memorial Recreational and Welfare Centre completed in 1950. Behind it was a basketball court with roof erected around 1952/53. (copied from moddsey's comment).

The date originally attributed to the image on flickr was 1949, with the additional information it was set to 1952.
