Looming over Belvoir Road
The blocks of the Dawson Heights development frown out over more traditional housing on Belvoir Road below. Apparently, we are supposed to be thinking "Italian Hill Town" here, according to this piece from 2012. http://www.c20society.org.uk/casework/dawsons-heights-the-italian-hill-town-in-dulwich/ when there was an application for listing made. It was turned down by the Secretary of State. From the link :- "English Heritage disagree. They emphasise the architectural and design interest of the site: ‘The dramatic stepped hilltop profile is a landmark in SE London, and endows the project with a striking and original massing that possesses evocative associations with ancient cities and Italian hill towns." Err....Which Italy would that be, then....? In fact, browsing some of the other pictures from round here, I saw this one which suggests Brazil might be a better comparison. Image

Horniman Museum SE23
Victorian tea trader Frederick John Horniman began collecting specimens and artefacts from around the world in the 1860's. He opened part of his family house to the public so they could view the riches he had collected, and eventually commissioned construction of a new museum, which opened in 1901. Entrance to the Museum and Gardens is FREE - and highly recommended! See www.horniman.ac.uk.

View from Dawson Heights
This is the view from the driveway leading up to the flats known as Dawson's Heights. The parkland on the other side of the flats has one of the finest views in London - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2635879. This is the south-facing side looking down to Overhill Road and beyond to Sydenham Hill Woods and Dulwich Woods. The Crystal Place TV Transmitter can be seen on the horizon above the house. The estate at Dawson’s Heights was constructed between 1968 and 1972 and cost in total a little over £1.6 million to build.
