Villa Street runs north-south for about 400 metres through Walworth, and along its length can be seen a variety of housing from the mid-19th to late 20th century. This striking building, 47 Villa Street on the corner of Merrow Street, is an Edwardian building (c.1906) and originally formed part of the Church Commissioners' Octavia Hill Estate. At various times it has been a mother and child clinic, a refuge, a depot and a squat, but most recently converted in 2003 by Avanti Architects into a medical centre. Cycle stands are provided for clients. Source: http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20110118095356/http://www.cabe.org.uk/case-studies/villa-street-medical-centre/design
