Morden: Love Lane / Forest Road railway bridge
The bridge carries the railway line between Sutton Common and St Helier stations over Love Lane / Forest Road here. The road name changes at the bridge, and the photographer is standing on the Forest Road side.
The boundary between the London Boroughs of Merton (to the left) and Sutton (to the right) runs down the road through the bridge. The two white posts by the bridge abutments are boundary markers for the former local government arrangements. The post on the left demarcates the boundary between the former Municipal Boroughs of Sutton & Cheam to the left and Merton & Morden to the right including the bridge, while the one on the right indicates the boundary between Carshalton and Sutton & Cheam again. Resurfacing work and subsidence around the first post has resulted in the loss of the letter M in Merton so the post actually reads "ERTON & MORDEN"!
This is the same viewpoint as Noel's Image from July 2005. The only apparent changes are that the graffiti on the bridge has thankfully been painted over and the circular plate at the bridge soffit, possibly a height warning sign, has disappeared.

Morden: Hexham Road, St Helier Estate
Hexham Road is on the large St Helier Estate, built between 1928 and 1936 by the then London County Council (LCC), on land formerly owned by Westminster Abbey, for the re-housing of people from run-down inner London areas. The estate was named in honour of Lady St Helier, who was an LCC Alderman from 1910 to 1927. To commemorate the area's historic ownership, the roads are named in alphabetical order after Monasteries and Abbeys starting in the north-west with Aberconway Road and ending with Woburn Road in the south-east. All the road names on this particular area of the estate begin with the letters G (Garendon and Glastonbury) or H (Halesowen, Hartland, Hexham, and Hunston) or I (Iona) or K (Keynsham and Kirksted).
