Former builders’ merchant, Streatham Common South
This derelict plot once housed a small independent builders' merchant (Lewis & Co) serving Streatham's trades. I took some photos through the chain link fence blocking the entrance, but it would have been good to get in there and find some more interesting angles.

The White Hart Inn, Mitcham Cricket Green
The White Hart Inn, Mitcham Cricket Green
A coaching-age pub on the old Surrey road, its steeply pitched roof and stuccoed frontage dating to the late 17th or early 18th century, refaced in 1747 as London expanded ever closer. The Doric porch and balustraded parapet speak to former ambitions. Grade II listed, it shares this corner of London Road with almshouses, parish rooms and a war memorial - the old heart of Mitcham, still largely intact. TQ274684.
