 Alan Turing: the Enigma |
Page 317: The statement about AMT's lodgings is incorrect. His address was 78 High Street, Hampton; but I quite unjustifiably and incorrectly assumed that this was the High Street passing through Hampton Hill which borders the NPL site. In fact it was the High Street of Hampton itself, further away to the south-west. The lodging-house, Ivy House, was quite a superior establishment. You can now see a picture of it on this Scrapbook Page, together with a streetmap reference.
Page 345: One of my omissions in research was that I neglected to make contact with the secretary of the Walton Athletic Club, Mr J. F. 'Peter' Harding, who had in fact a number of excellent anecdotes about AMT's participation in the club. Fortunately these have now been noted and you can read them on this Scrapbook Page. Additionally Mr Harding found a photograph showing AMT with the club members on a Saturday morning, boarding their bus. This photograph was used for the cover of the Walker Books 2000 edition.
There is further material in the Alan Turing Internet Scrapbook: Alan Turing's Electronic Brain.
