More about this scene
Angell Town was an estate of 1850s Italianate villas, mostly semi-detached, built on curving roads centred on St John's church, whose 1853 tower is crowned by four pinnacles. This view is from an upper balcony of Eldon House, one of the eleven-storey blocks of council flats built c1960 on the Loughborough Estate. Nearly all the villas have since been demolished and replaced by four-storey council flats in yellow stock brick. In the distance we can see the Houses of Parliament, the Victoria Tower and Big Ben.
