22 January (Part 4) - Who are they spying on now?

Abbey Road camera Abbey Road camera Abbey Road cameraBexley Council doesn’t only rely on residents to spy on each other, they also keep a surreptitious eye on us themselves. Not for crime prevention, the CCTV system hasn’t been monitored for several years, they prefer to sneak in less obvious surveillance to benefit themselves. Yellow boxes, No right turns, that sort of thing.

I don’t know how long this spy cam has been watching over us on Abbey Road, I pass by most days but I only noticed it last week. What is the point of it? It’s not a prime fly tipping site and although I have once or twice seen the odd bag left by the side of BT’s broadband cabinet there would be better vantage points from which to spy on it.

For those unfamiliar with the area, it is opposite the north western corner of Lesnes Abbey park.
