Upper Norwood: car showroom, closed
This car showroom dates, from the look of it, from between the wars, and closed early in the 21st century. At time of writing (early 2011) it has been boarded up like this for some years, with no immediate plans for its future.

Upper Norwood: Overseas Trade Links, Church Road
This firm specialised in agricultural machinery for developing countries and as a result Upper Norwood would sometimes have the unusual experience, for a London suburb, of having a classic 1970s Massey Ferguson tractor rumbling around it. At time of writing (early 2011) the premises are being emptied.

Crossing, A212 Church Road, Crystal Palace
Church Road is much more mixed in usage than the other two sides of the Crystal Palace 'triangle'. Always busy with traffic, as though everyone stays indoors.

Almshouses, Belvedere Road
A pretty little row of stuccoed houses with a continuous cast iron verandah. The listed building description dates them as c1850. Grade II listed.
The spire peeping up on the left belongs to the Greek Orthodox church on Westow Street.

Stoney Lane, looking out of the Norwood triangle
The centre of the Upper Norwood triangle used to be given over to light industry: joinery, engineering and so forth. Some works survive, but much of it now is made up of small housing estates, various cul-de-sac lanes into the triangle giving onto a network of pedestrian paths. Stoney Lane leads in from the south. A dark afternoon, hence the flash was used and picked out something close to the camera on the right side of the shot: I'm not sure what it is.
