St James' Road, Bermondsey

Image: © Ken Ripper Taken: 1 Apr 1951

Taken in 1951 this photo, looking north along St James' Road (towards Southwark Park Road in the far distance), shows the prefabs on the east side of St James' Road between Fort Road and Strathnairn Street. The corner shop behind the lady's shoulder used to be a bagwash and is on the corner of Strathnairn Street and St James' Road. The prefabs have long since gone and Townsend House now stands on the site.
