66-70 Knight's Hill
Image: © Stephen Richards Taken: 6 Oct 2012
This innocuous two-storey building on the corner of Wolfington Road was being demolished to be replaced by shops and nine flats, developers once again demonstrating their ability to distort the fabric of space. Previously this had been occupied by a couple of secondhand furniture shops; the newsagent next door (far right) told me that he remembered it being a ladies' hairdresser's and a butcher's. There was no implication of any sort of Sweeney Todd connection. Partly visible to the left is Rosebery's auction house.
