ARCHITECTURAL GEMS.

Looking up again I came across this lovely stained glass window in The Corner House.  Recently refurbished it houses a community centre and guess what an architect, Jason Harris of T-Space Architects. This window has a secret, it only truly comes to life as it is getting dark outside and the lights inside shine through showing the beautiful colours of the glass.  

Keep watching for more "little gems".

THE CHURCH OF ST. MARY THE VIRGIN

This fabulous church is the only Grade 1 listed building in Redbridge. It was designed by the Architect Thomas Hardwick in the late 18th Century. The foundation stone was laid in 1787 some 70ft north of the original medieval church and today still retains the original 1790 pews.  I never tire of photographing London's amazing architecture.

This is our lovely Wanstead Village Police Station that is under threat of closure.  Opened in September 1886 it is the only police station in London that still retains a traditional blue lamp.  To the people of Wanstead it still signifies safety.  Please may it continue.

NOSTALGIA.

As much as I love the countryside, and I do, all those who have seen my Spitalfield project know that every time I see an urban scene I just have to take a picture.  This is the view from our workshop which used to be an old stable back in the days when grocers had horse drawn deliveries (nostalgia).
