Garden fence, Jasper Road, Crystal Palace, south London
The houses are descending Farquhar Road. Crystal Palace village centre is on a summit. Approaches to it are surprisingly steep, and this spur of Jasper Road is no exception. The gradient is estimated as 1 in 5 in old money.

Outdoor surfaces, Bowley Close Regional Rehabilitation Centre, Upper Norwood, London
A number of surfaces have been laid for people learning to walk again – grass, gravel, boards, slabs, cobbles – with steps, slopes and handrails. Judging by a sign, the Centre is operated by Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, with credit to King's Health Partners; the small print says 'An Academic Health Sciences Centre for London' and 'Pioneering better health for all'. The Centre and other developments are on the site of the Crystal Palace High Level station. More partial views:

Site of Crystal Palace High Level station, from Crystal Palace Parade
Crystal Palace High Level station was built by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway, competing with the earlier Low Level station built by the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway; it was at the end of a branch from which a line ran north towards Nunhead and Peckham Rye. The line was closed in the early 1950s. Although its dead-end position ultimately doomed it, the High Level station had some advantages: it was much closer to the settlement that had grown up around the Palace, and much closer to the Palace itself. Steps led from the station to a subway under the Parade and thus directlly into the Palace: the brick platform in the foreground is the point to which stairs would climb and the subway (still extant) ran from about the bottom-left corner of the photograph behind the photographer.
In the background, terraced housing on Farquhar Road.
