This is not Belmarsh Prison
Belmarsh is about a mile away but it could easily be imagined that the same architect was responsible for both. This metallic creation, seen here across Carlyle Road in Thamesmead, has metal bars everywhere which are very reminiscent of a prison. Worse still, there is not a hint of greenery anywhere to break up the stark lines of these flats.

Thamesmead footbridge at dusk
A view of Image at dusk. The pedestrian route weaves its way under and over the traffic lanes of a complex junction, sometimes with little headroom. Coming down its northern end into the backstreets of a 1970's housing estate, it is a typical concrete cityscape, unwelcoming at the best of times, and not really the place you want to be after dark. This was the last photo I took that day before catching a bus home.

Low headroom on the Ridgeway
The road junction was obviously built at a time when the planners did not envisage the sewer embankment below it becoming a popular traffic-free cycle path. But unless you are very tall it is possible to walk under here without ducking.
