I'd pass the Lyndhurst on the bus on my way home from my job in the city in the late 60s, I remember thinking, I bet there is a fantastic view of the city from the window of the top flat in the tallest block, but a bit scary in a howling gale.

Happy Christmas and a Virus-free New Year to all residents, past present and future, of The Lyndhurst Estate.
