The Oval Cricket Ground, Kennington. Aerial view photograph taken in 1938, showing protective covers over the seating, missing in the early 1900s, thereby causing much discomfort to viewers in inclement weather.

Kennington Park can be seen at the top, and the gas works on the left of the cricket ground.
