VE Day celebration at the Vincennes Estate, Carnac Street, West Norwood. A memorial plaque was erected in memory of the resistance heroes of Vincennes, France, including Violette Szabo, a Lambeth girl, and Lilian Rolfe, whose father lived in Knatchbull Road. It was restored and re-dedicated during the VE Day celebration in May 1995, attended by the Mayor of Vincennes and local councillors. The flag on the left is the Cross of Loraine of the French Free Forces.
