  1. That’s in Southfields, curious to find out too!

  2. Give me a better location and I can do some digging (this is perfect last-day-before-holidays fodder), but “Wandsworth SW18” is a bit too general.

  3. It’s a finger.

    No idea about the building behind it though.

  4. I’m gonna guess at an admission kiosk for some form of transportation. Very intriguing, love this sort of thing!!

  5. It looks like a tollbooth, or a ticket office. I know there was an old stadium near there, could it be the old entrance to that? The Wandsworth coat of arms is on the front of it.

  6. Old police layby. When police on patrol on foot it gave them a spot to stop and rest or get needed paperwork. A storage area. Able to use in emergency if needed.

  7. Whatever it was, it’s a shame that it seems to be let fall into disrepair.

  8. Assuming it’s water tank on top, an olde horse drinking fountain?
