Random bit of old London

In a very grand portico belonging to a fairly modest-sized house (or so it appears to be), behind some large but not delicate gates, currently mostly concealed behind a tarpaulin. What?

I liked the massiveness of the date, in beautiful early 20th Century lettering on what looks like the top of a drainpipe.

Fab graffiti outside the Rampart Street squatted social centre & cultural space.

Not the biggest of walls to have needed two sets of buttresses over the years. It's not a trick photo either: the ground level is the same on both sides. The wall surrounds the church (as opposed to the Catholic chapel) at Lulworth Castle.

The Royal Garrison Church of St. George, Grand Depot Road, Woolwich. What a great set of names to conjour with! This ruin was destroyed by a V1 flying bomb during the second world war, but it remains consecrated and is used for memorial services. Driving past it, it looks absolutely stunning — I genuinely thought it might be a shored-up Roman ruin. The main wall behind the altar has an elaborate mosaic of a cavalry rider-cum-St. George which really could come from just about any classical era.
