IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Haynes Lane, LONDON, SE19 3AN

To the left lie Victorian terraced houses, to the right workshops tucked behind the loading bay of Sainsbury's.

Tucked off the Norwood triangle down Haynes Lane, an area of workshops below Sainsbury's recalls Norwood's history as a hub of light engineering; they are now used by artisans, craftsmen and women, and antique sellers. The purpose of the tyrannosaurus, seen above the parked car, was unclear. At the extreme right of the picture, the road turns through ninety degrees along the back of the workshops and, passing through barriers that stop vehicles, becomes Bedwardine Road.

A Saturday market of various organic and artisan foods, taking place where Haynes Lane meets Bedwardine Road. The buildings on the right are part of a complex of workshops and second-hand shops that back onto the Sainsbury's development on Westow Street.

Hayes Lane, which turns into Bedwardine Road, twists down off the Crystal Palace plateau and on the way gives access to various old light engineering premises now used for premises such as craft workshops, an antiques and second-hand market, and this guitar shop which is the last commercial outlet before one emerges into suburbia at the bottom of the hill. Taken after dark on a winter's evening. I don't remember ever seeing a left-handed bass before; there's a niche market.

At the top of Haynes Lane, a person in a carrot suit advertises the Food Market taking place down the lane. So far as I can tell from local publicity, the person in the suit is one of the market's organisers, rather than some unfortunate school-leaver on a minimum wage. Crystal Palace Food Market is a Saturday market of various organic and artisan foods, taking place where Haynes Lane meets Bedwardine Road. The buildings on the right are part of a complex of which the major part is the Sainsbury's on Westow Street.

In June 2017 many shops in the Crystal Palace triangle acquired stickers in their window like this: mock "blue plaques" from the Norwood Society describing a business that had previously traded there.

At this time the three roads of the Upper Norwood triangle were all two-way: the triangle turned into a one-way system two or three years after this.
