The 2013 stinkpipe hunting season begins

I've been out on my bike, with my stinkpipe collecting kit, and have come back mainly with ones I already knew about but had, oddly, disappeared into the nether region of time gone past.

I managed to delete a sizeable portion of my stinkpipe archive a couple of years back and memory also seems to dump stuff it deems unimportant. Stinkpipes unimportant. As if!!

Avery Hill Road
So to get back into the swing of it, and because it was a rare sunny day, I cycled around my locality to mop up a few stragglers, and to update a few that I hadn't seen in about 7 or 8 years. Blimey, has it been that long?

Here's my new pics - click on the link to be whisked off to my Picasa albums

New Eltham
in New Eltham I rounded up aone I'd seen on my travels, on Avery Hill road; and discovered an entirely new one on Leysdown Road.

Mottingham
In Mottingham I rephotographed the one by the BP garage, and Court Farm Lane, and for the first time, the three on Dunkery Road.

Bromley
Revisited the Kings Avenue pipe, to see it has been repainted. I think it used to be white.

Catford
photographed all the Catford High Street pipes for the first time (below). The old photos were quite poor, taken from a car I believe. this time I got up close. Also found three entirely new ones, including a type of Ham Baker never seen before. a sort of missing link of stinkpipe evolution!

Greenwich
another one I'd sen but never photographed, In the middle of a short stretch of busy dual carriageway. It's of a design I've never seen before (right).

Woolwich
Three I pass regularly but have never stopped to photograph - nothing stunning, except that one appears to be half buried in the pavement!

  1. Do you know about the pipe on Kemnal Lane? Just where the foothpath that leads from Imperial Way to Kemnal Lane ends, by what is now the back corner of Kemnal Park Cemetery.

    Happy hunting!

  3. When you want a good excuse to get out of the house and out into the open, bring a metal detector and a sense of adventure with you. Scour beaches and other areas as you are doing nothing more complicated than walking. Important link
