This partly-ruined building, almost underneath the Waterloo-London Bridge railway line, lies within the Borough High Street Conservation area, whose appraisal document reads: "It is a commercial building of about the 1860s, which turns the corner into Southwark Street and therefore occupies a potentially important location in the streetscape. However, it has been ruinous for some years and its condition noticeably detracts from the character and appearance of this part of the conservation area." http://www.southwark.gov.uk/Uploads/FILE_22340.pdf Although this cannot be denied, it certainly makes an interesting and unusual sight.
