Heygate Estate demolition (1)

Image: © Stephen Craven Taken: 21 Oct 2014

Demolition of this large housing estate in South London is well under way. What is seen here is the remains of the footbridge show in Image taken three years earlier by another contributor. The Strata Tower in the background shows the sort of new housing that is replacing these post-war estates.
