Thamesmead towers across South Mere

#photography #monochrome #architecture #SocialHousing #CouncilHouse #SystemBuilt #Thamesmead

Looking south across the lake towards Hartslock Drive, four 12 storey grey concrete towers with Oakenholt House being the rightmost of them. Visible behind them, in fact 400 meters further distant on Yarnton Way six similar towers which, in true Father Ted style, are smaller. The rightmost, Maplin House, is which rather than grey, being the first and at that point only block to have been refurbished.
