The view West towards Milford Street from Milford Hill, the ugly Churchill Way elevated ring road dominating the scene. Built in the 1960s, the flyover runs parallel with Rampart Road whose junction with Milford Hill can be seen in the photo. A number of old buildings were demolished in order to construct it, including at least 5 buildings here on the North side. A view from the same viewpoint of c.1914 show clearly what has been lost: https://media.geograph.org.uk/files/7eabe3a1649ffa2b3ff8c02ebfd5659f/010b_Milford_Hill-original.jpg
