title Brantham Dereliction, and a SwiftKey Photoshoot, Suffolk and Southwark - 29th April 2014 intro SwiftKey's Lucy wants some photos for some reason, so we wander off around the streets of Southwark looking for suitable spots. Before that, there are some photos of graffiti along the rails into Liverpool Street, then there's a tube strike so the underground is locked up and there's a lot more traffic and people around in the City. Later, on the way home, the train's going slower than usual so it's a rare chance to get some good photos of the derelict factory buildings on the lesser-seen eastern side of the tracks at Brantham/Manningtree, near the former British Xylonite site. imgc2637 New silver graffiti on the wall imgc2639 A big "Bam" tag imgc2641 Another new tag: Bish imgc2646 More London trackside imgc2647 The scrap yard is having a burn up imgc2648 The shell of a demolished building imgc2649 The space where a building used to be imgc2654 The rails into the west side of Liverpool Street imgc2655 Concrete supports under the Broadgate Development imgc2657 Liverpool Street underground is closed imgc2658 London Wall is unusually busy imgc2659 Waiting at the lights to cross London Wall imgc2661 There are more business suits than usual imgp7271 Factory buildings at Brantham imgp7272 Twisty pipes imgp7273 A Network Rail dude stands around imgp7275 A derelict warehouse imgp7278 Brantham factory site in the rain imgp7279 Swathes of wet concrete imgp7282 The shell of a former office building imgp7286 Brantham wasteland imgp7288 Derelict buildings on the other side of the rails imgp7294 At work, there's an inflatable ping-pong dinosaur imgp7297 Helal hauls the inflatable dinosaur around imgp7319 Lucy pretends to give a speech imgp7342 There's a lot of traffic on Southwark Bridge Road imgp7343 A convoy of rozzers steams up the road imgp7349 Lucy stands on America Street imgp7357 The America Street railway arches imgp7358 A very short section of bunting on a wall imgp7359 The Shard imgp7361 Lucy under the arches imgp7375 On Southwark Street by the smarties lights imgp7386 An underground lair on Southwark Street imgp7387 The mudflats and river at Manningtree imgp7389 Curious derelict buildings in the trees imgp7390 Heavily graffiti'd corrugated iron buildings imgp7391 Derelict factories imgp7392 Nature slowly takes over the derelict site imgp7393 A tangle of pipes and broken trees imgp7394 A stone-clad wall imgp7397 A derelict corrugate warhouse, with Quir tags
