The discovery of a suspected WWII unexploded bomb at John Stainer Primary School forced the evacuation of homes on St Asaph Road this afternoon. The evacuation order has now been lifted.

On the Brockley Central Facebook page, James points out that this location is recorded as having been bombed. Bombsight notes that a high explosive bomb fell between Oct. 7, 1940 and June 6, 1941.
