The website of Walworth Methodist Church (Clubland) records that, following severe damage in World War II, "Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother opened the new Clubland and Hostel on May 18th 1964". More recently, "We have gone into partnership with West London Mission and now the former Hostel has been converted to a 34 bed Hostel (for overseas students and asylum seekers) … West London Mission runs their Big Hour project in the remainder of the Hostel, with 10 flats for a rough sleepers initiative." http://www.walworthmethodist.org.uk The To Let sign relates to the building behind the tree, left.
