Title
Houses in Grove Lane
Description
View of front elevations of terraced houses at 33-43 Grove Lane, Camberwell, from an alley now called Mary Boast Walk. A terrace of six, two-storey, plus basement, derelict houses with mansard roofs and dormer windows. The houses are set back at a slight angle to the road with long front gardens. Number 43, nearest the camera, has a hole in the ground floor wall exposing the lath and plaster and most of the windows in the terrace are boarded up. The gardens are laid to grass which hasn't been cut for a long time and are full of builders rubble and twisted corrugated iron sheets. In the foreground is a cleft wood fence and the alley is laid to small square tiles. A street lamp post is affixed to the wall at the end of the terrace and three single beds and mattresses have been dumped in the alley. In the background on the right is the rear elevation of 24b Camberwell Grove and in the distance on the left is the upper floors and roof of Mary Datchelor school for girls which still exists. The terrace and houses behind them, no longer exists and this is now the location of a tennis club.
