Amersham Vale, LONDON, SE14 6LF

This park was redeveloped in the first half of 2010. A view looking from the southern end of Warwickshire Path. The tower in the distance is the Hawke Tower Image

A centre providing a variety of social services.

The eastern end of the pedestrian subway under New Cross station; for the west end see Image The train in the picture is one of London Overground's new electric units for the route to Shoreditch. For a view the following year after redevelopment, see Image [technical note: a curves function has been used to digitally adjust the photo to lighten the interior of the subway].

London Overground electric unit 378 145 leaves platform D at New Cross, forming an East London Line service to Dalston Junction. The platforms at New Cross are lettered rather than numbered, to prevent confusion with the platforms at New Cross Gate station (which was also named New Cross before 1923) a short distance to the west. While all East London Line services to New Cross Gate have been extended south to either Crystal Palace or West Croydon, trains to New Cross still terminate here, just as they have for many years. The class 378/1 units are 750V DC third rail only, and therefore cannot be used on North London Line services. All have been lengthened from four cars to five, hence the large sign on the front (which put me in mind of the "9 CARS" signs in the windows of nine car trains of Standard tube stock on the Northern Line of the Underground during that short lived experiment).

Looking north, towards London Bridge, Cannon Street, Charing Cross, and the East London Line, from the north end of platform C. The platforms at New Cross are lettered rather than numbered, to prevent confusion with the platforms at New Cross Gate station (which was also named New Cross before 1923) a short distance to the west. Platform B (left) shows evidence of recent extension work to enable it to accommodate 12 car trains.

The subway is at ground level, the railway is on an embankment at this point. The subway forms part of the London Cycle Network, linking Fordham Park with Margaret Macmillan Park. For a view two years later after redevelopment, see Image

This "walk-in" medical centre http://newcrossgpwalkin.co.uk/ was built for the Lewisham Primary Care Trust in 2006-2010, currently (2013) part of NHS South London http://selondon.nhs.uk/ . Compare a view two years earlier: Image The northern end of the building (left) is now open, as is a pharmacy on the corner.
