Redevelopment of Oxted Gas Holder
With the previous gas holder now demolished, this is the development that has taken its place (see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7031466 for a photograph from roughly the same viewpoint, with the gas holder demolition in progress).

Shops and restaurants, Station Road East, Oxted
Nothing is really old here in what was first called New Oxted, the whole settlement here was created when the railway came (quite late - 1884) and was just built to look old.

The Oxted gas-holder
Seen from Morrisons' car park, on the other side of the railway.
The gas-holder is no longer in use, and a body of local opinion would like to see it demolished without delay. And yet it is said that the UK's gas-storage capacity is worryingly low, sufficient to hold no more than a few days' supply: http://peprenewables.com/uk-gas-reserves-down-to-six-hours/ Much of the UK's capacity was lost as a result of Thatcherisation, with gas-storage sites ending up in the hands of asset-strippers. I'm yet to be convinced that the Oxted site is truly redundant.

Former grocer's shop
This shop just outside Oxted station is now a Nepalese restaurant, but a ghost sign "Cooper Family Grocer Provisions" gives away its original use. There are other words but not legible in this view.

Oxted: the main drag
Looking south-east from outside Pizza Express. There's less mock-Tudor along this stretch than elsewhere. And look at the gas-holder: somebody had the cheek to mock Oxted's mock-Tudor, by plonking that down there. On the left, in the sunshine:

Amy Road car park
The car park was nearly empty at 2pm on a Sunday, reflecting the fact that unlike most towns, few shops in Oxted are open on a Sunday.
