Taken in interesting early-afternoon light. Like much of London, this area is being drastically reshaped with the demolition of post-war blocks and erection of supercharged towers of flats unaffordable to almost everyone. Bizarrely, a couple of ugly duckling 1960s blocks have survived. A shot from 2010: Image
