The Latitude Building

Former South London Hospital for Women and Children opposite Clapham Common. The original building was completed in 1929, designed by Sir Edwin Cooper. The hospital closed in 1984. The site now houses a Tesco supermarket along with apartments, with the original frontage being retained and renovated, but with the addition of an end pavilion (towards the right of this photo) - this had been part of Edwin Cooper's original design but was never completed.
