Croft Radio, West Wickham
The end of a run of interwar shops on West Wickham's main shopping street. Croft Radio is apparently no more but the sign gives it that little extra interwar feeling.
In the background, the church of St Francis of Assisi.

St Francis church: new east window
The east window features stained glass designed and made by Andrew Taylor and dedicated by the Bishop of Croydon on 3rd October 2010.
The words bottom left are a quotation from the prophet Micah "What does the Lord require of you but to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with your God". The words bottom right are, fittingly, from St Francis, "For it is giving that we receive, in pardoning that we are pardoned, and in dying that we are born to eternal life".
