NOTES: This image was almost certainly taken on the Gray familyÔÇÖs fairground in the Vale of Health, Hampstead Heath. During the 1930s Edwin Smith and his wife Olive Cook lived next to this site and knew the Gray family well. The painter Stanley Spencer was also a neighbour and he painted a picture of the helter-skelter in the photograph, that is now part of the Graves Art Gallery collection at Sheffield. The ride in the foreground of the photograph was Fred GrayÔÇÖs set of Gallopers. This ride still exists and is part of the Thursford Collection at Fakenham in Norfolk.
NOTES: The London Eye was designed by David Marks & Julia Barfield in 2000 for the Millennium celebrations. The Royal Festival Hall, completed in 1951 for the Festival of Britain, was designed by the London County Council Architects Department.
NOTES: The wheel was installed on the east side of Belfast City Hall in 2007. The City Hall was designed in Baroque Revival style by Alfred Brumwell Thomas in 1896-1906.
