These are the favourite ones I've come across over the years.

Forest Hill Road.

New Cross Gate. Remember it being Blue a few years back.

Opposite the Imperial War Museum.

Apparently where they got the idea for Love Thy Neighbour from.

There's a blue plaque at 34 Montague Square commemorating John Lennon living there.

But what it doesn't say is that Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney and Jimi Hendrix also all lived there at different times too.

That's a shame, because they all spoke very highly of you.
