Yesterday, I took a trip up to breezy north London to see the mighty Dulwich Hamlet FC\u00a0secure a point against Enfield Town<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I took time out to wander around the town after the game and grabbed this small collection of photos:<\/p>\n

Splendid late Victorian bank architecture.<\/p>\n

This\u00a0Barclays Bank branch was the first place in the world to have an ATM or cash machine. It was officially opened in June 1967 by Reg Varney<\/a>, a television actor and personality most famous for his lead role in the comedy series On the Buses<\/a>. This historical event was marked by a silver plaque on the wall of the bank, which has since been vandalised\/removed and replaced with an English Heritage Blue plaque. Read more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
