No. 99, formerly Kirkaldy's Testing Works, was built in 1877 to the designs of T.R. Smith. Kirkaldy pioneered the scientific and independent testing of materials used in civil engineering and the building now houses the Kirkaldy Testing museum. Grade II listed. Pevsner describes the architecture of Southwark Street as representing "High Victorian Southwark and includes some of the most consistent stretches of that period still remaining in London".
