This youth centre had originally been the hall of the adjacent St Francis Church. The church closed in 1962 and was demolished but the hall survived. It was part of the "Twenty Five churches" inter-war building campaign of Southwark Diocese, and more details of its history can be found in Richardson's book on the subject.
