Inscriptions & markings

The 'Miss Stayput' house in the car park out the front of Target in Camberwell. You can even see the Target logo on the building.
The house was owned by Mary Campigli, who defied the council order to move, and won her case in court. She stayed in the house, surrounded by a car park until she died in 1983 at the age of 94. The house was finally demolished soon after.
