Ghost Streets

A screengrab of a 3D visualisation of a house that no longer exists at 131-133 Lower Clapton Road. The building is facing corner on and has broad shop windows to the right and a series of interlinked pitched roofs with chimney stacks. It looks around 18th-19th century in date. The Model is incomplete and in greyscale.
131-133 Lower Clapton Road recreated (work in progress) using SketchUp. The house was bombed out on the night of 15/16 October 1940. There are no records of any casualties. The house was demolished in early 1941 and the site remained undeveloped until 2017.

WIP!!!

 

A picture of 131-133 Lower Clapton Road the day it was bombed (morning of 16 October 1941) can be viewed at the Borough of Hackney Archives website here.
