Wandsworth Road Estate

    A rare example of deck access being used for buildings that are only two storeys high.

    This estate, which surrounds the Durrington and Amesbury Towers (and which uses a design that is exactly repeated in at least three other locations in Lonson - Camberwell, North Battersea and Canada Water) is not a particularly efficient use of space, but is notably well maintained (there's even a new fountain and landscaped garden in the middle, as well as several carefully tended lawns) and has an unusually well-loved feel to it (particularly when you consider that it's in Lambeth - not the greatest maintainer of estates...).
