Welcome to Merton Memories
The Merton Memories Project
Produced by Merton Library and Heritage Service, the Merton Memories website offers unprecedented access to a unique collection of photographs charting the history of Merton over the past 150 years.
This project has been made possible thanks to a dedicated team of volunteers, with further assistance from local museums, societies, schools and community groups.
