UK - London - Closed police station phone contact

Single telephone that is now only contact with local officers at closed East Dulwich police station, Lordship Lane. Graffiti has been scrawled on what was the main entrance doorway to the now vacant building on Lordship Lane, south London. As part of government economic austerity cuts, East Dulwich station has been closed and local crimes and law enforcement, dealt with at nearby Brixton and Peckham, some miles away. The community's anger to losing their local police is one example of how everyday hardships are being squeezed by the absence of healthy spending in the public sector, including the closures of libraries and many healthcare services.
