Street scenes around Atlantic Road, Electric Avenue and Coldharbour Lane from a chilly February afternoon.


The weathered and faded grandeur of 387 Coldharbour Lane, Brixton. The date of construction has been etched into the stones near the top - 1891 - while a space on the right serves as Brixton Bizness Cafe, an internet cafe,


Having a stretch, lunchtime, Phoenix Cafe.


All work stopped on the large building development on Coldharbour Lane before Christmas, but the hoardings around the site were being painted.




Fruit store, Electric Avenue.


Boxes of curious edible wood-type stuff, Granville Arcade. The huge snails are no longer sold from here.



Waiting to reopen, Granville Arcade.



The Wig Bazaar, Granville Arcade.




Riding down Atlantic Road.


Everything Must Go, Atlantic Road.


Small SIM card shop, Atlantic Road. There's about four of these tiny businesses built into the curve of arches. Are there any smaller shops in London?


Baron Big Sale, Atlantic Road. You can buy safari suits in there.


Graffiti, Atlantic Road.


A rural survivor; five bar gate, Coldharbour Lane.
