IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Moree Way, LONDON, N18 2UN

The photograph has been taken at the Angel Edmonton and shows the hideous facade of the supermarket that has now replaced the once Grand 'Regal Cinema' at Upper Edmonton. It demonstrates how many of our historic and dearly loved buildings have been demolished in the face of so called progress. One wonders how the planners could have approved the construction of this building which is a very poor substitute for the previous edifice.

Park Road is a minor road in Edmonton, in the suburbs of north London. Here, the road passes beneath a railway line. Signs warn that the bridge is low, however the road has subsequently been closed to motor vehicles. Painted markings on the road surface indicate that the road forms part of the route of London's Cycleway 1.

Solomon Avenue is a residential road in a modern housing development in Edmonton, in the suburbs of north London.

Pymme's Brook is a minor tributary of the River Lea (or Lee) in north London. This photograph was taken from the platform of Silver Street railway station, which straddles the brook.

For at least the third time today there was an accident and associated road closure on or around the North Circular east of London, this time a few miles to the east around the Crooked Billet, and the westbound traffic went as far as Finchley. Luckily I was going in the other direction.

Pymmes Lake was once part of the Pymmes Estate. The name came from a wealthy landowner called William Pymme who built a mansion nearby in 1327. In the 16th century the land was owned by Lord Burghley and later by Robert Cecil, Earl of Salisbury. The northern 33 acres of Pymmes Park was opened to the public in 1897, while the remaining 20 acres was established as an ornamental park and formally opened to the public on 16th June 1906. Victorian and Edwardian visitors to Pymmes Park used the lake for pleasure boating. Rowing boats and children's paddleboats were used on the lake until the late 1970s when the lake was turned into a wildlife sanctuary. The house itself burned down in 1940.

Still looking very much like a pub, but now trading as the Capital Restaurant.

Opened in 1872 by the Great Eastern Railway on its line from London Liverpool Street to Broxbourne. View south towards White Hart Lane and London.
