#TodaysWalk was to Herne Hill, over the border between #SouthEastLondon and the desperate west, and thence to Brixton Hill and Clapham.

The border is not very visible as it meanders through Brockwell Park, but there's always someone, or something, watching.

#TodaysWalk was one of the last I'll be taking this week, so I was happy to find, on my way to Crystal Palace, a bin-pergola to add to my portfolio of bin-shelter studies.

The bin-store and the bin-shed have become, in recent decades, familiar features of the built environment of #SouthEastLondon, but the bin-pergola seems to be a novelty, not least to the people who design such things who, in this case at least, have managed to provide their insufficient shelter for insufficient bins.

These almshouses are a time-travel corner of 1821, hiding in built-up, urban #peckham #SouthEastLondon they look especially good when the sun is setting (taken last week) #silentSunday

World War One stretchers used as railings. #SouthEastLondon

I haven't done #TodaysWalk yet, but I did go out yesterday and found two monkey-puzzles, three murals, a chiff-chaff, a robin, a pigeon, a camellia, a dozen dinosaurs and StonePenge.

I also checked up on the Celebratory Spruce of Sydenham which, at least for the moment, was still in the depths of Lent.

Wandering through social housing estates in Peckham after dark. What an amazing secret archway! #london #SouthEastLondon #thicktrunktuesday

#TodaysWalk took me North to #Greenwich, where I reviewed some #ActiveTravel infrastructure and admired, albeit from a distance, the Greenwich Foot Tunnel which, should it spring a puncture, might drain the Thames.

#TodaysWalk was to #Peckham, where I learnt that the Solomon's Passage* flats are now flat, and that the worm will come**.

** No. And I don't advise googling it, either.

I'm on an unplanned Kate Bush pilgrimage.

@HouseOfSchnuck Haha, I bet it does. And I was a bit fancy with 'evocative' - it's just lots of nice and often interesting photos from the world. Will be nice to see #SouthEastLondon in there too!

One of my favourite places in London to walk around is Greenwich! Tis the season of mulled wine and ankle boots, wrapping up warm and seeing the lights!
📍Queen's House, Greenwich Park, London
