Another delight. Actually I've seen quite a few of these stonework structures within post-war estates. And I really love them - modernist follies. But this is the first one I've seen with tubes.

A mound covered by stone bricks with concrete tubes coming out of it on a few sides, and a ring of rectangular concrete pavers around it, surrounded by dead grass, green trees and tall buildings.

An aerial shot from Google Earth of a mound covered by stone bricks with concrete tubes coming out of it on a few sides, and a ring of rectangular concrete pavers around it, surrounded by grass, green trees and tall buildings. You can see in this view that there is a swirl pathway to get into the centre of it.

It's been more than 2 years now, and #London #architecture still continues to surprise and delight me in the most random corners of the city.

The alt-text was nearly impossible on this one.

A set of terrace houses completely shingled in wood with pointing, sloping overhanging first floor roof (but not a balcony). Modular rectangles general shape with tiny windows.
