Norwood Bus Garage, Ernest Avenue
Built in 1981-84, the second garage on the site. The banner on the end commemorates the garage's centenary, having been opened in 1909 by the London General Omnibus Company. (Information from Arriva.)
Among others, from here one can catch the 2 to central London, several other buses to Brixton, or the 468 to South Croydon. The world is one's oyster...

Thornlaw Road (1)
Looking east down the bottom end of Thornlaw Road, where it meets Knight's Hill, from near the junction with Casewick Road.
These houses were probably built in the second half of the C19th.
The development of West Norwood began with the breaking up of Lord Thurlow's estate after his death in 1806, but it accelerated greatly with the arrival of the Crystal Palace railway in 1856; between 1851 and 1901 the population of the district of St. Luke's, Norwood increased from around 4,000 to around 36,000.

4 and 6 Thornlaw Road
Amid the mostly Victorian and Edwardian streets of West Norwood, these two houses stand out somewhat. They were designed by Ernest George and Harold Peto in 1882-83. The tile-hung upper storey, prominent chimneys and white-painted sash windows are common motifs of Arts and Crafts architecture. Grade II listed.
George lived in Streatham for some years and designed several buildings in the area.
