From the rooftop car park of the Centrale shopping centre. Visible to the left is the former Tamworth Road school, now the used by the local NHS trust as a base for mental health services, and to the right the chimneys of the former Croydon power station, now the site of an IKEA and retained by the store as a landmark. In front of the chimneys, the yellow building is Factory Lane waste disposal site (Image). In the foreground, the curving wall marks the spiral ramps for cars ascending and descending.
