This square is just off Walworth Road. It gained some notoriety during the 1960s because the Richardson Brothers had an illegal "drinking club" named the "Addington Club" in the square. They also had a scrapyard near here from where they ran their criminal enterprises. (See the site in this photo http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/200880 ) The area has changed a lot since then, physically and socially.
