This photo is for BBC Domesday Reloaded as a recreation of a 1986 photo http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/domesday/dblock/GB-520000-183000/picture/3 . The entrance onto High Road looks much the same as in 1986. The 1986 photo had "London Transport" above the main bus entrance, now it has "Metroline" who run buses under contract to Transport for London. The first floor windows were clear in 1986, now they are blocked. The big difference is behind the entrance. See aerial photos on one of the mapping links http://www.geograph.org.uk/gridref/TQ2184/links , e.g. on www.bing.com http://www.bing.com/maps/explore/?org=aj#5003/s=w/5872/style=be&lat=skr6h7&lon=gzd134&alt=86.919022&z=17&pid=5874 . It is site with large buildings and many double deck buses parked.
