A Sunny Hawthornvale

Click to zoom in

A bright and sunny sketch of one of my favourite streets.

Hawthornvale, which runs down from Newhaven Road to Lindsay Road and the fab little cafe, the Haven which sits opposite the Chancellot Mill.

We nearly bought a flat here once, they have wonderful views especially the ones that have windows on both sides. I did draw a nice commission once of the view from one of the flats. I will see if I can find it and post it below.

I noticed today the street has had double yellow lines painted down the right hand side, which now means as you can see there are no cars parked along the pavement.

There is also a strange pavement/road thing at the top which I didn’t quite understand and to me looks a little dangerous for pedestrians.
