I am are trying to track down pictures of the Imperial War Museum when the gardens at the front were used as allotments during World War II.

Any help much appreciated.

Have you looked through their large collection of images here:

If not, try contacting them, they probably have some.

Wouldn't that just be rather too sensible? hehe

Thanks guys,

Yes I did look there, it is for my partner who works at the IWM. Seems as though the only images are those from RAF reconnaissance shown on the BBC documentary.
