Robin walks down to the Strata Building with a lightning elephant sign, passing the Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre with pink Elephant statue, carrying a castle on his back. Then Robin walks to the subway station, and discovered the buildung where the photo was taken, and where Donal Laing lives.

It’s the Perronet House opposite of Elephant & Castle Tube Station

The Shopping Centre with Elephant statue not longer exists. It was demolished in

October 2020, a new shopping centre will build in 2021.

The Elephant statue will be restored and relocated at Castle Square during construction.

It will then move to a space in the new town centre when the project is finished.

Perronet House again as a gasman to search his flat for proof of his thoughts. After he found some cruel things he was attacked by Donnie Laing, and they both fought violent in the flat
