35-37 Albert Embankment

The pub on the corner of Tinworth Street dates from the 1850s and has ornate ironwork on the window ledges, rusticated quoins and moulded window surrounds. Originally The Crown, its current incarnation is as The Rose. Next door a former warehouse (Vintage House), the last remaining nod on the street to the area's industrial heritage. Giant pilasters or piers divide the facade. The windows at the top have pointed segmental arches with keystones. Information from Lambeth Council. I doubt the colour scheme of either is original, but they make a very jolly pair.
