Pictures from an Eltham bus ........ no.29 ....... almost done

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, and the rest as they say is Larissa Hamment’s “Pictures from an Eltham bus”.*

In the case of our new cinema, Larissa has been recording the story from before the old Co-op building came down, and has covered its demolition, the clearing of the site and the slow rise of the new picture house, our first for decades.

And here is her picture, taken on Saturday, with, “Final adjustments to the cinema”.

Location; Eltham

Pictures; the new cinema, 2019, from the collection Larissa Hamment
