Former Alaska factory, Bermondsey
See also Image The Alaska Factory opened in 1869 for the processing of Alaskan fur seals. The boundary wall is all that remains of the original construction. The main "art deco" building by Wallis and Gilbert, seen here with illuminated sign, dates from the 1930s. It is now converted to housing.

Bermondsey Spa gardens, western entrance
Bermondsey never had a spa in the usual sense of a medicinal spring. The "gardens" date from the 1700s, created by artist Thomas Keyse and famed for their fireworks and concerts. The 4.5-acre (18,000 m2) park was redeveloped in 2006 at a cost of £2 million.

Entrance to former Alaska factory
The gate, dated 1869, has a seal on the pediment, originally the principal source of skins for the fur processing factory. The factory building beyond, in a distinctly different architectural style, was built in the 1930s, by which time the firm had become a more generally sourced skin and fur processor. It is now flats. Oddly, neither structure has the benefit of being a listed building.
