There is a fairly new on in Mitcham.

I couldn't get closer to it than that on Google Maps; other people might be able to.
It is Glebe Court bus stop, Mitcham CR4 3NJ.


There's a better view of it at https://goo.gl/maps/o6NS9reKod52


Thanks for that! I love Google maps but it can be fiddly and almost-infuriating. A lot depends on the angle one first attacks the map at. One's attack plane seems to become stuck.

The shelter dates from 2009-2012. It and its bus stop were originally
further south on London Road beyond the traffic lights. They were moved
to the new position last summer (Jun-Aug 2016).


I have walked past it and it looks very solid. It is in a the Cricket Green conservation area.
