The Bramdale Laundrette (closed)
The laundrette (sic) had already gone out of business when I moved to the area in 2007, and judging by the faded lettering it had already been closed for some time. It took its name from the two roads on the corner of which it stands: Bramshot Avenue and Hopedale Road.

Last of the News of the World
The Toybox Newsagent on Bramshot Avenue had for a long time advertised, like many others, the popular newspapers including the News of the World. The latter title was due to publish its last ever edition on 10 July 2011 (the day after this photo was taken) after being hit by a scandal about the illegal practice of phone-tapping.

Charlton United Reformed Church
The building is on Bramshot Avenue. It was built in 1908/9 in "arts and crafts" style to the design of Griffin and Woollard. It was intended as the hall of a larger Congregational church that never got built. In 1972 the Congregationalists became part of the URC. The URC now works jointly with the nearby Sunfields Methodist church
