We lived in Croydon, South London from 1994 to 2001. During that time I photographed the Croydon Skyline project for Croydon Council and did a feature for Inside Housing on the nearby Roundshaw Estate.

Here are some of my favourite images of that time, shot on a mixture of 35mm and 6x9cm medium format film.
