We return to #MemoriesMonday as the Autumn sets in and thoughts turn to Borehamwood in the past. Many long-term residents talk about the IvanhoeCastle which was built on the MGM backlot for the 1952 film of the same name and was visible from many parts of the Wood. It stood the test of time and was there for a good few years, so much so that many visitors and new residents thought it was a real castle - perhaps built for 'Lord Borehamwood'.
Of course it was eventually demolished and all trace disappeared apart from a mound here and there in the Studio Way estate. No-one really knew its exact location. But now thanks to the GPS data and other clues our Museum Curator, Dave Armitage, has located it precisely opposite the Toby Cavery. It lay across the two small roads of Banks Road and Hancock Court. Here is the photo he has produced. Would still be impressive today.
