A couple of photos found their way into my inbox yesterday. They came from Simon Cowderoy, long-time Crossfields resident who currently resides at a latitude several seconds west of the estate. I thought there was something typically ''Deptford'' about them - humour and maritime history encapsulated. From a £2 ship in a bottle bought in the market to the 4th plinth in Trafalgar Square, they made me smile anyway.
Simon tells me that there's actually a little-known 5th plinth in Deptford where the ship has a more permanent resting place. He was kind enough to send me a photo of it standing proudly above what appears to be an artefact from Deptford Power Station...
