Tabard Gardens on the left, Becket House near right. Becket House still has its stretcher railings, which are made from recycled WWII steel stretchers. See for example https://www.citymetric.com/fabric/hidden-wartime-history-london-s-fences-3841 . I must have walked past these hereabouts hundreds of times when working in the far block (when it was offices) without realizing this.
