66-70 Knight's Hill
This innocuous two-storey building on the corner of Wolfington Road was being demolished to be replaced by shops and nine flats, developers once again demonstrating their ability to distort the fabric of space. Previously this had been occupied by a couple of secondhand furniture shops; the newsagent next door (far right) told me that he remembered it being a ladies' hairdresser's and a butcher's. There was no implication of any sort of Sweeney Todd connection. Partly visible to the left is Rosebery's auction house.

23-45 Knight's Hill
A prosaic Victorian group, although the first building - portentously named Knight's Hall - has an improbable Corinthian portico. The building is dated 1885. It houses, also improbably, the Portico Gallery, but in common with much of suburbia most of the other buildings are cafes or takeaways. We also have a nail bar (another growth area), a mortgage consultant, cab firm and MENCAP offices at the end.

44-64 Knight's Hill
A fairly standard late-Victorian/Edwardian parade, running between the railway and Wolfington Road. Compared to even some of those in Streatham (e.g. Image]) it is very unassuming. In common with much of suburbia most of the shops are cafes/takeaways, convenience stores or newsagents, but at no. 46 we have Centre 70, a Citizens' Advice Bureau, and there is also a nail bar (a growth area) and a carpet shop.

Julian's School, Wolfington Road
Educational planners around the country have been caught on the hop by an unexpected increase in the birth rate leading to a lack of school places. West Norwood has been one such affected area, something which Lambeth Council is now attempting to address. The primary school had just opened a week or two before, even though the rear is still a building site and at the front workmen can be seen finishing off the landscaping. The outdoor space - on the right - is rather cramped. This pleasant Arts and Crafts style building began life as a Jewish orphanage - a panel above the entrance bears the inscription, "Arnold and Jane Gabriel Home 1910". Prior to the school, it was used as offices by a local housing association.
