At this important and often congested South London junction, all the roads change name. Straight ahead is Gipsy Hill, with the tower of All Saints Church prominent in the middle distance; to the left is Central Hill, linking to West Norwood and Streatham; to the right is Westow Hill, leading to Crystal Palace Park; and behind the photographer is Westow Street, coming up from the Croydon direction. Central Hill and Westow Hill are both part of the A214, but the other roads are not classified. Motorists not familiar with this area are advised to avoid it altogether, if possible.
