UK - London - Decorators work on a period home

Two decorators work on scaffolding on the first floor of an Edwardian period home in south London. Warm light from inside the house contrasts with blue winter light at dusk a few miles south of parliament in Westminster. Other homes are in darkness. It is late one evening in central London, in a suburb known as Herne Hill, SE24 in the borough of Lambeth. We see across the metropolis from quiet and expensive period homes, whose owners would typically be white middle-class, across to the blocks of flats (apartments) in the Loughborough Estate, a far rougher location for street gangs and high crime rates.
