This TE located in Lordship Lane has a splendid appearance about it with its windows and vertical drainpipes. It is unfortunate therefore that the ornate middle entrance is no longer in use, the new entrance being to the left of it. This TE now has 0208-881, 888 and 889 xxxx numbers, having had BOWes Park and MULberry numbers until the late 1960s. The extension behind the TE can be seen to the right of the photo.
