  2. A random question for local historians out there. I was having a browse around the wonderful Aerial Photo Explorer: https://historicengland.org.uk/images-books/archive/collections/aerial-photos/ and found this 1946 RAF shot of Dog Kennel Hill/Dulwich Hamlet etc: https://historicengland.org.uk/images-books/archive/collections/aerial-photos/record/RAF_106G_UK_1356_V_5165

    If you zoom in to Champion Hill at the top of the image, there is what appears to be a large aeroplane in the front garden of a house. The house no longer exists, but the location roughly corresponds with the Langford Green estate.

    Anyone have any insight as to what this might have been? A downed German bomber, perhaps?

  3. Not art deco, but interesting none the less. It was a commercial building designed by the architect John Outram in 1987. Outram is still very much a maverick polemicist in the profession and has designed some truly remarkable buildings (look up The Judge Institute of Management Studies in Cambridge). It certainly wasn't one of his best, but it probably had more thought and passion put into it than a thousand other 'light industrial units' around the country.
  4. Zonderlings sounds good. Our band has similar issues playing original tunes in SE London - there just aren't many places unless you're a 'name'. And you run out of willing friends quite quickly (we do, anyway).


    We ran our own night at the Old Nun's Head in Nunhead last summer and would be happy to try that again with some other like-minded bands. Also, we recently played the Miller in London Bridge, which is not far from ED at all.
