The sculptures of Milford Lane, refers to three stone heads by Henry Poole, which were originally part of a larger collection for the United Kingdom Provident Institution's offices, relocated to Milford Lane when the building was redeveloped in the 1970s.
Remember using these things to light the gas stove? In those times it was either a match or one of these, long before built in automatic pilot switches.
"I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be" Upper Sydenham has a very unexpected garden ornament, the spire from Wren’s St Antholin's city church, demolished 1875, to make way for Queen Victoria Street.
Then & Now: Narrow St in the late 1950s. Wirh a Woodward Fisher van parked on the left outside of the home of Dorathea (Dolly) and William (Bill) Woodward Fisher of 94 Narrow St, Limehouse. Dolly or Tugboat Annie of the Thames owned 88 tugboats by 1972.
The former Colney Hatch Lunatic Asylum, now known as Friern Hospital. The main building has been converted into Princess Park Manor, a luxury apartment complex, and the original front gates still exist, although they are now closed for security.
Antrim Gardens, Hampstead has a secrets relic, a baluster hidden in a childrens playground, from the original John Rennie’s Waterloo Bridge, built 1817, demolished by 1936. Converted into a sundial, but the scars of the sundial fittings are all that's left.
700 year tower of All Hallows Staining has been suspended 45 feet above ground as part of a major City of London building project, balanced on stilts above a 60,000 sq ft excavation site. I find my old night time picture more favourable. What are they doing?
Then & Now: Old Waterloo Bridge, Embankment, 1900. Originally Strand Bridge, built 1811 - 1817, by 1900, showing significant structural damage from river. By 1920, the damage to its foundations had worsened, leading to demolition and this new replacement.
Woburn Walk a pedestrian street in Bloomsbury, London, designed by architect Thomas Cubitt in 1822, and one of the first examples of a pedestrian shopping street in the Regency era. The well kept curved windows are a good example of Georgian London.
Still there hidden away at Clapham South, the deep wartime shelter, where admission to the deep-level shelter at Clapham South Station was not by a standard London Underground ticket but by a special council-issued "night ticket"
Why did the dog leave the pot? The sculpture of a dog and pot at Union St, Blackfriars Rd, represents a historical shop sign. The original sign was part of a ironmonger shop on this site in London of historical significance mentioned by Charles Dickens.
