View from Dawson's Hill
Having been to most of the famous viewpoints in Greater London, I feel the little-known view from Dawson's Hill in East Dulwich seen here is one of the best of them all, mainly because of the unobstructed nature and wide range of the panorama. My other main contenders would be Alexandra Palace, Norwood Grove, Primrose Hill, Addington Hills, The Point on Blackheath, Pollards Hill and Havering-atte-Bower by the water tower. Although good, none of them in my opinion quite match up. In this photograph, the hills of Highgate and Hampstead are on the right skyline beyond the British Telecom Tower, whilst on the far left skyline is Harrow-on-the-Hill beyond the chimneys of Battersea Power Station. On exceptionally clear days Windsor Castle can be seen.

Dawson's Hill and its view
Having been to most of the famous viewpoints in Greater London, I feel the little-known view from Dawson's Hill in East Dulwich seen here is one of the best of them all, mainly because of the unobstructed nature and wide range of the panorama. My other main contenders would be Alexandra Palace, Norwood Grove, Primrose Hill, Addington Hills, The Point on Blackheath, Pollards Hill and Havering-atte-Bower by the water tower. Although good, none of them in my opinion quite match up. In this photograph, the hills of Highgate and Hampstead are towards the right beyond the British Telecom Tower, whilst to the right of these is The Shard (still under construction at this time) and the other towers in the City. On the far left skyline is Harrow-on-the-Hill beyond the chimneys of Battersea Power Station. On exceptionally clear days Windsor Castle can be seen.

Dawson's Heights, Overhill Road (1)
A landmark building due to its elevated position, its craggy, stepped silhouette appearing as a man-made extension to the hill atop which it stands. Its 300 flats, each with its own balcony, are in two parallel ranges separated by a green space. In contrast to many public housing projects of the time - it was built in 1964-72 - it is clad in brown brick. Designed by Southwark Architect's Department. A listing application in 2012 by the Twentieth Century Society was rejected despite being supported by English Heritage.
