The Seamen's Mission

Shot with Olympus E510
And have you seen the old man
Outside the seaman's mission
Memory fading with
The medal ribbons that he wears

Ralph McTell sung about one in the "Streets of London": This seaman's mission in Limehouse had gone to rack and ruin a few years back. It's been refurbished now, and it's a "Character Conversion" with a one bedroom flat for £225,000. Doesn't that just say it all.
