Former Lambeth Ragged School, Newport Street
Built in 1851 by Henry Benjamin Hanbury Beaufoy as a memorial to his wife at a cost of £10,000, and now used as an art gallery.
At the school's opening, Lord Ashley declared that, "There was no reason whatever why Lambeth should not rescue itself from the present disgraceful opprobrium which attached to it.". Some things never change.
Ragged schools were free schools for poor vagrant children. They were founded by Lord Shaftesbury in 1844, and by the time of the 1870 Education Act there were 350 which were gradually absorbed into the Board School system.
Information from the Vauxhall Society.
On the left a train makes its way from Waterloo towards Vauxhall.

Vauxhall : former Queen's Head public house
"The Queen's Head public house, 71 Black Prince Road, Lambeth (previously No.48 Broad Street). The pub existed pre-1780 and was rebuilt in 1890. Initially a Free House, it was owned by Messrs Barclay Perkins and later Courage. Charlie Chaplin's uncle was the licensee in 1900. It has since closed and in 2011 became a cafe." - https://boroughphotos.org/lambeth/queens-head-vauxhall-walk-lambeth/

Black Prince Road
Seen at the junction with Vauxhall Walk. The Queens Head stands on the corner with a Penny Black stamp as its pub sign. However, the old signage is fading and this one time Courage house is now a café / restaurant - though the sign above the door suggests that it has also been a free house.
Passing is a bus on the 360 route from Kensington to Elephant & Castle. This is a high frequency route that is operated by Go Ahead London Central. The vehicle is a Wrightbus Electrocity - a hybrid vehicle using VDL mechanical parts.

Lambeth: The 'Queen's Head', Black Prince Road
Whether this is still a pub., or merely a cafe bistro, is uncertain. In the background, the bridge carries the ex-LSWR main line to Waterloo.
