A college at work was nosing around the web for some image of Catford, where he was originally born and came across this interesting photo website called Derelict London.
I [sort of] enjoyed that site Search East. Thank you for that.
Bizarrely enough I realised I've drunk in most of them at some point or another! Well, perhaps not all but I lived in Greenwich for about 5 years and when I first came to London in '94 I landed in Woolwich.
There are a lot of entries for Woolwich but the one that isn't there is probably the biggest loss. There was a pub called The Pullman which was right by Woolwich train station. A beautiful old thing it was...think it was a former railway hotel. Anyway it was pulled down to make way for Woolwich Arsenal DLR.
My heart dropped to think of what a beauty was lost but I suppose that's the name of progress?
