A. E. Matthews has lived in the house on the square since he was married. He had a wife and children, but they're gone now. The house was damaged during the Battle of Britain, and now he lives with his dog and makes his way in a neighborhood which has grown tired and commercial. Now he's being told he has to leave so the building and the others around it can be torn down and replaced with flats. And all the friends in the neighborhood, whom he never realized he had throw him a party.
