Flats on Sherbrooke Way
Seen across an area that seems to have been some sort of rubbish tip, and is being cleaned up and levelled for a cemetery extension.

Nature reserve at The Hamptons
In the early 20th century, the Epsom Sewage Farm occupied a small site immediately south of Green Lane. By the 1960s what was now Worcester Park Sewage Works had expanded southwards to cover about half the area now occupied by The Hamptons and after that it further expanded to the east and west. After its closure in the 1990s it was redeveloped to create the Hamptons in a style reminiscent of New England. At the centre of The Hamptons lies a 'town hall', Maple Lodge, which was designed to be the hub for the whole community. Part of the development is a 31 acres new green space called Mayflower Park, which includes a grass amphitheatre for performances and an area of five wetlands forming a nature reserve. This view looks across part of the wetlands to flats in Sherbrooke Way.

Delcombe Avenue
A typical 1930s suburban street. In the distance are, I think, gas holders at Motspur Park.

Area for cemetery extension
This appears to have been part of a rubbish site, judging by the state of the heap on the right. It is here in the early stages of being converted into an extension of Merton and Sutton Joint Cemetery.
