The photograph on this page of Kingston: Hampden Road by Stefan Czapski as part of the Geograph project.
The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.
There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

Much of this grid-square is taken up by cemeteries, sewage works and the Kingstonian stadium, not leaving much room for residential streets. One side of Hampden Road is residential, the other industrial. A neighbouring street is known as Gladstone Road - which gives a fair clue as to the date of development. Beyond the gates at the end of the road there is an athletics stadium - hence the floodlighting.
