A photographer from Fulham has captured images of some of London’s most beautiful, but most mysterious, buildings rarely seen by the public.

Unseen London features a range of images by Peter Dazeley which cast a unique eye on some of the capital's best-loved and lesser-known buildings and landmarks.

It features 50 different locations in the city, and includes photographs of Battersea Power Station, Big Ben and Downing Street.

It also includes images closer to home, including Fulham FC’s home Craven Cottage and Harrow School.

The book came about after Mr Dazeley, 66, witnessed the destruction of Battersea Power Station over a number of years. He said: “I managed to get access to the power station in 2010 and took some amazing pictures of what is left inside it.

“The photos eventually went viral, and went everywhere, and that was like a light going on in my head - to photograph bits of London that I don’t know about and very few people have seen.”

Over the next four years he fought to get permission to photograph locations including The Bank of England and Ministry of Defence.

His book was published last year and proved immensely popular, with re-prints being ordered twice within the first two months, and making an appearance in the Amazon Top 100.

Mr Dazeley, who was born in West Kensington and educated at Holland Park Comprehensive, has run his studio in Parsons Green since 1983.

He said: “I’m an advertising photographer by trade and I’m interested in people and things and places to photograph.

“I was taking photographs of buildings that I had walked past thousands of times and had no idea what was inside.

“I’m a born and bred Londoner and Unseen London is a book about London. I did it as a bit of fun and it turned into this beautiful book.”
