Title
Cottages in Pitcairn Stret
Description
Pitcairn Street was a side road off Wandsworth Road, since redeveloped as the Heath Road estate, the new road names celebrating the Black British athletes who took part in the 1984 Olympics. This view looks from the T-junction with Heath Road along the terrace of two-storey mid-to-late nineteenth-century cottages on the east side of the street up the hill to the rear of the shop buildings on Wandsworth Road. The corner property in the foreground to the left appears to be a disused shop, one window boarded and another showing a ‘LYONS TEA’ sticker. The boundaries to most of the shallow front yards of the cottages are fenced off with corrugated sheets, indicating they are due for demolition. A repurposed Bedford CA ambulance is shown parked in the street, an MGB GT parked in the distance, and a Ford Transit on Heath Road to the left of view.
