On the left is a (probably) 1970s office block, but its right-hand neighbour is a real curio. Westminster Bridge House was built for the London Necropolis Company in 1900 by Cyril B Tubbs (of the LNC) and Mr Andrews (of the London and South-West Railway). It has an imposing facade of granite, brick and terracotta. This building was the terminus of a railway which ran to Brookwood Cemetery near Woking until 1941 when many of the buildings were destroyed by bombs. It is currently disused. Grade II listed. On the far left is Christ Church.
