Brixton snow: more chilly scenes from south London

Snowy scenes over Brixton, south London, Sunday 5th February 2012

I fear it won’t be around for long, but this morning there was still a fair covering of snow covering Brixton, so I headed out, camera in hand.

My chilly photo tour took me around Coldharbour Lane, Loughborough Park, Brixton Station Road market, Brixton Village, Windrush Square and St Matthew’s church.

  1. I’ve just realized that there have all over Tel Aviv exactly the same single benches as the ones on Windrush square… coincidence? Zionist’s lobby taking over Brixton? Something else? 🙂
