Kingsway, Coney Hall
Although it now seems the quintessence of suburbia, in the 1930s this street was at the centre of a rent- and mortgage-strike led by the local woman (and Communist Party member) Elsy Borders, as a protest against shoddy building standards in the then newly-erected estate and the way that building societies had been in cahoots with speculative builders to get buyers into these substandard houses. http://www.grahamstevenson.me.uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1189:-borders-elsy-and-jim&catid=2:b&Itemid=98 Clearly the fact they are still here indicates that a lot of remedial work has happened since.

Coney Hall from West Wickham Common
On the London Loop, a rare instance where there is a gap between trees on West Wickham Common to reveal the view below. West Wickham Church can be glimpsed in the far distance on the right.

Church Drive
A short roadside section of the London Loop between the two City of London Commons, West Wickham and Spring Park.
Strange chalet style roofline on these two semis. Eye-catching but possibly not the best use of space, as the nearest one has decided by squaring up the triangle.
