Pictures from an Eltham bus ........ nu 8....... goodbye the Co-op ..... another childhood landmark gone

The top deck of a London bus has to be a pretty neat way of seeing the world below.

And when it is the same bus at about the same time every day then you have got yourself a project.

All you need is a camera and the patience each week to record the same spot.

It helps if there is a major new development underway like the one in the High Street and the rest as they say is Larissa Hamment’s “Pictures from an Eltham bus.”*

There will be many who remember the RACS building in the High Street, which is now just a hole in the ground. Larissa was passing yesterday and took the image.

Location, Eltham High Street, Eltham, London

Picture; December 2016 the old Co-op/Pound Shop site, from the collection of Larissa Hamment
