I live near Streatham High Road and find the mansion blocks fascinating. There are other fine examples along up other stretches and some of the side roads. Thanks for an interesting post, there is interest in the mundane!

Nowhere is inherently interesting. It's how you see it, how you look, that makes it so. And all these locations were because of the way you see things on our behalf. Thank you.

Very interesting to learn about the male model Harry Uzoka and his sad demise.

Got a lot of time for Streatham High Road. Full of character and sometimes characters! The blocks of flats add to this.
My sister used to live in a similar block just around the corner from your main pic and I can confirm that they are chilly!

Well you win some and you lose some, but with the DG treatment, it was still an interesting read.

Another interesting post, touring the sites while sitting in my armchair. Thank you.
P.s. When you reach the boundary on your north,south,east and west, will you do the diagonals too?

Aspen Way - pretty sure I remember that spot from the marathon.

Ollgar Close - the flats are all connected - so the main access is from Uxbridge Road.
Aspen Way - kinda scary that the stuff being demolished is itself probably less than 40 years old - obviously English Heritage (nor anyone else) will be troubled by its loss, but it does encourage an alternative set of 'citizens of nowhere'.

(in a post which confirms that random locations aren't necessarily intrinsically interesting)...odd as i found it to be quite interesting.

There are a few speed cameras in and around the Limehouse Link but it's the one that you've described - on the downhill stretch just inside the mouth of the westbound underpass [as opposed to the one in your photo] - that makes the most money: I seem to remember reading it's one of the top earning cameras in the capital.

I’ve always found that stretch of Aspen Way oddly interesting - a real border between old and new.

I'd wondered what happened to the traffic light sculpture, I enjoyed walking past it when I worked in Heron Quay 20 years ago!

I was excited when you got close to me while visiting Starch Green in your 51½°N post but having made it to Ollgar Close (not Ollgar House) you could have knocked on my front door and I could have offered you a cup of tea!
