Brick pillars in Sheridan Road

I owe this one to Richard Woolf who mentioned these unusual brick pillars in his talk on Modern architect in Ham. It just goes to show that you can wander around with eyes wide open looking for things and still miss them. My excuse is that there are only a few pillars like this in the road and that they are often at least partially obscured by cars.

The design is simple (a change of colour, a stepped top and a triangle at the summit) and very effective. It just goes to show how much impact little things can have.
