This weekend, we will remember, not just those who gave their lives in the wars, but the way their memory has been utterly desecrated by thieves, land-bankers and @LewishamCouncil. Officially 'At Risk #heritage #bellgreen #se26 #lewisham #warmemorial historicengland.org.uk/advic…
The Livesey Hall War Memorial is now on Historic England’s Heritage at Risk register. Longterm neglect by @KierProperty; about to restore it, they sold it off to a property developer instead. Andrew Davis should be ashamed on #RememberanceDay. @kiergroup historicengland.org.uk/advic…

Another shot of a newly-refurbished North Tyneside icon - the Tynemouth Castle Inn, formerly the Park Hotel. It's great to see it finally coming back to life. @Inn_Collection #NorthTyneside #WhitleyBay #Cullercoats

What a difference a good clean-up makes!😍
The covers are off, and the imposing Pearl Assurance House is clean and gleaming🧼, thanks to work being carried out in partnership with @HistoricEngland.

C20 is concerned by the removal of this fine figurative relief from AMP House in Croydon (Fuller Hall & Foulsham, 1968-70), and at reports it may have already been destroyed.
We’re liaising with Croydon Council and hope it may yet be recovered intact.

.@LewishamCouncil are now threatening to come round to my home and steal my garden waste bin and fine me £300 for not continuing the subscription. I paid in April. What the hell is wrong with this rotten council, currently being run by a Mayor who is in Bristol?

Just imagine... how toxic this land must be... for nothing to grow, in the shape of two gasholders, for over 3 years. #gasholder #bellgreen #gasholders #contaminated #land #toxic #sydenham #se26 #bellingham #catford #lewisham #foresthill #se6 #se23 #mastershots #drone

It's a simple idea: We demand the govt scrap the energy price rises and deliver affordable energy for all. We will build a million pledges and by Oct 1st if the govt and energy companies fail to act we will cancel our direct debits. Read more here: dontpay.uk/

That time I started taking carefully aligned pictures of a gasholder being dismantled, which then turned into some sort of secret early-morning military operation during lockdown 1.0. #greenwich #gasholder #demolition #architecture #lockdown #photography #jumbo
