Woodview Mews, Church Road, Upper Norwood
Behind 273 and 275 Church Road is this 8-year old development of flats and houses; the six timber-clad frontages represent 11 dwellings. The side porch of 273 shows on the left. As I was framing a shot a local resident appeared and asked if I was an architectural photographer or a bailiff. Bailiffs in Upper Norwood? Who would have thought – but it was a period of suddenly high interest rates.

Croydon Waterworks cover, Church Road SE19
This metal cover, judging by its size, conceals a stopcock. 1864 is very early in the life of this suburb: the Crystal Palace had only recently moved to this hilltop site, provoking development in which villas were laid out around it.
