The door doesn't look right, but Is this the "not a police station" on Kings Cross Road, which is a former police station now used to house traffic wardens.

there's a similiar message on the security office at Lewisham Hospital in outpatients. I can't imagine anyone except the terminally drunk would think it was a police station :-)

Simon - well, it doesn't say it isn't...
Not Kings Cross Road, Lewisham Hospital, or near Church Way/Eversholt St. I had no idea there were more than one of these, though when you think about it, the world is full of non police-stations.

Out of all these guesses and comments, pb999 gets closest.

Is this next door to The Woodbine pub on Blackstock Road?

'fraid not, Dan. There is no pub in this street (yes, there are some publess streets in London!) and it's nowhere near the Blackstock Road.

It does have a connection with traffic wardens.

Not the traffic warden place in the Barbican on Goswell Road, 50 yards up from Barbican Station?

I'm afraid not. Quite a long way west of there.

Although it's in a little street, there is a sign to it from the more major road it's off, which shares part of its name..

I will have to put this in the graveyard if no-one guesses it by Sunday night. On Sunday people will be visiting a place nearby, also mentioned in the street name.

Sigh...I can never tell how difficult or easy these things will be.
It is the Metropoilitan Police Traffic Warden Centre in Kensington Church Court. Off to the graveyard with it!

I nearly said Kensington Church Street from your clue, too.

There's a lot of XXX Church Streets about, of course...

Looking at the AZ, I can't picture this this street at all. It seems to be where the flower stall is/was.

Neither the AtoZ nor multimap are very good at representing the little warren of streets and courtyards arounfd the church. The flower stall is still there, and this street is a bit further up.

Brilliant spot, great shot! So, if you get mugged int eh street, do not expect help from a Traffic Warden or a Community Support Officer ... Health and Safety gone bonkers.
