By the light of the Shard
If the lighting in this view looks strange, it is because the photo is taken looking south in late morning (thus, nearly into the sun) but the tree has a sharp shadow on the north-facing wall of the office block behind. The shadow is caused by light reflected off the Shard some 500m away.

Borough High Street, London SE1
"Kentish Building", seen here bedecked with hanging baskets, is the residential component of the 'London Bridge Hostel' belonging to the St Christopher's Inns hostel chain. The hostel's Reception address is reported as being 161, Borough High Street. In fact the High Street (i.e. the A3) is through the archway ahead. A wall plaque affixed in the archway describes the premises on either side of the archway as "The Grapes Inn - A Protected Building. This is the site of the C16th St Christopher Inn, where passengers gathered prior to taking the Stage Coach to Dover"

Mermaid Court, Southwark
One of many narrow streets leading off either side of Borough High Street, which would once have been private courtyards. Mermaid Court is one of the few which is a through road, but is extremely narrow at the western end - barely wide enough for a car to pass - and is therefore a one-way street.

Inscription in Angel Place (2)
One of five plaques along the alleyway. This one, presumably a quotation from Dickens' novel Little Dorrit set in the prison that stood here, reads "there was not one straight floor from the foundation to the roof; the ceilings were so fantastically clouded by smoke and dust that old women might have told fortunes in them better than in grouts of tea".
