Cold Blow Lane, New Cross, Lewisham, 1989 Cold Blow Lane in the 19th century led to Cold Blow Farm, now long gone. In the 1850s the Croydon Railway built several tracks over and under it, and one of these went on the bridge whose two sides can be seen here. Railway tracks still go over the lane, and I took this picture close to the exit of the long tunnel that goes under them. At the end of the lane is Mercury Way, and Cold Blow Lane turns at 90 degrees to go south. Straight ahead, across another railway line, was 'The Den', then the home of Millwall Football Club, and I think the top of the stand is visible. On the wall at left, among other graffiti is the message 'Home of the Lions'.
