This photo from the Warren family collection has no legend. It would be the same era as the photo of Veronica Walker's birthday party in the 1930s. The children may be other Broadwood Road children or from one of the schools. The windows of the house aren't the same as those of The Towers and the stonework isn't the same as Quarry Bay School. Is there a clue in the older boy's socks? Are they school uniform socks? The shoes may also help to date the picture. The children have borrowed their parents' pith helmets for the photo.
