Or we are all a bit tasty.

It's a very tricky game to get right, to be fair. Also, most of the decent seams have been mined already. There's only so many distinctive parapets etc. in the area!

Might be.

I thought it was the church on Knatchbull road, but that doesn't have the same openings in the spire.
It's not the Angell park one either, that doesn't have a spire.

St Michael's Church (CofE) on Stockwell Park Road?

Crafty one, as the "attenuated lancet style" (i.e. looks as flimsy as a stage set) body of the church below is stock brick.

Nicely done, and I had not seen that building before. Very handsome and austere.

Also, check out the amazing circular window of the house over the road!

I have a vague idea that it might be by Ted Cullinan's office - wasn't that house once a supported hostel? If so it would possibly be one of the last things they did for the old West Lambeth Health Authority in the late 80s?

That's the one! There's some lovely architecture around that area.

It looks like something that might have been done in the late eighties/early nineties, perhaps by the type of architect who would wear red trousers.
