The last of the pictures I took with my camera out of the window as the train approached Greenwich station.
 
A remarkably clean and tidy looking block of council flats to the east of Norman Rd, part of the Haddo estate. Then a well-designed statement of civic pride and social concern, years of neglect or worse led to its deterioration over the years and it demolished around 2003, replaced by newer flats with little green space.
