EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Metropolitan Police Officer, PC Percy Ungate, as he patrols the Ferrier Estate in Kidbrooke, south east London, aboard his bicycle. Dating back to the late 1960s, the image showcases PC Ungate's dedication and commitment to serving and protecting his community. The large housing estate, which is currently undergoing regeneration, is depicted in the background, with Moorehead (or Moorhead) Way stretching out before him. PC Ungate's uniform is crisp and immaculate, reflecting the professionalism and authority of the Metropolitan Police Force. He wears a helmet for added safety while riding his bicycle, a common mode of transport for officers during this era. The use of bicycles allowed for greater mobility and enabled officers to respond quickly to calls for assistance. The Ferrier Estate, with its rows of terraced houses and expansive green spaces, is a testament to the social housing projects that were implemented in the post-war period to address the housing crisis in London. The estate's mix of brick and concrete structures, as well as its lush greenery, create a unique and intriguing visual landscape. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a snapshot of life in a London housing estate during a time of significant change. It also highlights the important role that the police played in maintaining order and ensuring the safety of their communities, even as they adapted to new modes of transport and changing social circumstances.
