Forest Hill folly
This tower folly was built in the grounds of Tewkesbury Lodge, a large house built in the 1880s for Herbert Charles Beyer. The house was demolished around 1930 and the area developed into what is now known as the Tewkesbury Lodge estate. The house itself was where 1, Horniman Drive was built www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6432193. The folly, built of Kentish ragstone was on the ridge at the edge of the grounds with views east over South London and west over Kent. It is now a spectacular garden feature of a house in Liphook Crescent and is quite difficult to see, except through the gap between the houses.

Regina - A modernist villa
The third most obvious example of 1930s modernism on the Tewkesbury Lodge Estate. See also the more flamboyant Welcome Aboard https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/758554 and the third example just down the road https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6432193. Forest Hill has more than its fair share of 1930s modernist buildings as well as the Horniman Museum which is a rare example of Art Nouveau architecture in the UK.

Re-purposed 1930's
Compare with https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/758375 which shows the same house in 2008. Within the last year, it has been gutted and renewed, the garage being removed and replaced by a new window in the former position of the front door with a new front door next to it. It is good to see the original patterned glass being retained.
