An abandoned mattress - a photo on Flickriver

This is the view into the stairwell of a small council estate on Pomeroy Street, in New Cross, in south east London, just east of the border with Peckham, where an abandoned mattress looked as though it was derived from some sort of sea creature. Photo taken in the early evening on March 5, 2013.
