Hemel Hempstead: Royal Mail Delivery Office
Presumably all mail with an HP* postcode gets delivered from the Royal Mail's Delivery Office here in Park Lane. The building has distinctive white clad roofs and walls. Although these must have looked brilliant on the architect's drawing board and when the building was first constructed, over time they have attracted a dark green fungal growth which makes the whole building look drab and dirty, far more so in some places on the cladding than is visible here.

Hemel Hempstead: Paradise
On a gloomy Easter Sunday this unprepossessing road and its little industrial estate might not seem like Paradise, but is! Paradise was once a hamlet on the east side of Hemel, and this road, named Paradise Road then but just Paradise now, led to it.

Hemel Hempstead Telephone Exchange (2)
Taken from Lamsey Road, this photo shows the East side of this large TE with several BT Openreach vehicles parked in front of it. The tall KD Tower, which has apartments, can be seen in the distance behind the TE. It replaced the Kodak Tower somewhile ago. The postcode of this TE is HP2 4XD.

Hemel Hempstead: Travelodge hotel
Hemel's Travelodge is in Wolsey Road. At the time of writing this the website http://www.travelodge.co.uk/search_and_book/hotel_overview.php?hotel_id=33 totally overenthusiastically stated that Hemel Hempstead railway station was 0.5 mile away. By my reckoning it is 1.0 mile away as the crow flies, more if not a crow...
