Disused Railway near South Croydon
As seen from a footpath from Spencer Road to Birdhurst Rise.
It passes over a disused railway line (the Woodside and South Croydon Joint Railway). This railway closed in 1983. This section of the line is being over run by young tree saplings. The railway sleepers and the tracks can still just be seen through the trees. (Plus a dumped TV set! )
See Link for more details about the disused railway

Art Deco bungalow on Croham Road, South Croydon
This is very similar to where I live, except detached and not whitewashed but the same basic plan. The underground garage is a bonus, mine is down a shared drive.

Thames Water meter cover
Totally boring image of the standard (plastic) water meter access cover as installed by Thames Water. Uploaded to compare and contrast with Image the splendid way they do it in Ireland.
To make this page a bit more interesting here are some factoids from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Payalcom/sandbox on Wikipedia:
Q. Why are man hole covers round?
A1. A circle is easier to manufacture.
A2. Cannot have situations, like with a square lid, where the lid falls into the hole because the edge is smaller than the diagonal.
A3. Can be locked in place by doing a quarter turn.
(The system does not seem to support a view direction of looking vertically down!)
