Cramer Court

Cramer Court between numbers 10 and 12 has a surprising link with the history of cinema. From 1914 the former Chatham Club became the film factory of Cherry Kearton. His(??) output included films of African wildlife but most notably the 1914 war film The Whirlpool of War. The studio was taken over by Bertram Phillips who made the 1923 version of A School for Scandal. When he decided to move his studio into his home in Thornton Road, De Forest Phono Films (one of the first talkie studios in the UK took over).
