London building site 1971

[Anthony McKay]

Any ideas on this one from 'THE PROTECTORS' tv series.

Looks a very large Estate being built there as there's more construction on the far left, one possibility is the North Peckham estate to the north of Peckham High Street and to the south of Burgess Park.......

Hello!!! that is Lisson Green Estate in NW8,this photo was taken between 1972-1975...the block on the far right has now been demolished,a large block stands where the red crane is,and the road on the far left is Lisson Grove...

Thanks 'Rollthedice' - I've found the Lisson Green blocks in question - the smaller homes with the distinctive roof is the key - "Cherwode House" off Grendon Street acording to VirtualEarth.



I'd have never found it myself.



Cheers,



Tony
