Northeast on Albion Street, Rotherhithe
The Overground station is a few steps to the northeast via Old Railway Walk, signposted left of centre. The postbox ID is SE16 10. The block of flats ahead is Pine House, one of several blocks named after trees. What would developers and councils do without trees to name so many blocks after?

Clack Street, Rotherhithe
Stumbling across Clack Street recalled the end of 'Captain Carpenter', John Crowe Ransom's gruesome Crusader tale:
"The curses of hell upon the sleek upstart
That got the Captain finally on his back
And took the red, red vitals of his heart
And made the kites to whet their beaks clack clack."

NISA local, Rotherhithe
Signs on this convenience store suggest it was newly opened in 2010. Presumably it competes for trade with nearby Londis Image It lies between Brunel Road (this side) and Albion Street; the Rotherhithe Road Tunnel runs under the car park.

Gate to the tunnel, Rotherhithe
The tunnel referred to as closed on the yellow sign in Albion Street is the Rotherhithe road tunnel. The road descends to the tunnel mouth between white-tiled retaining walls. On each side is a long flight of steps down to footways, reached through elegant wrought-iron gates. That on the opposite (west) side is open: see Image and Image

Rotherhithe road tunnel: southern portal
The tunnel is a single carriageway, i.e. two-way traffic. As an A-road rather than a motorway cycling is permitted but most cyclists consider it too dangerous as there is no room for cars to pass safely.
The inscription above the portal, which is grade 2 listed (LBS number 471268), reads: "This tunnel constructed by the London County Council was opened by HRH the Prince of Wales KG on the 12th of June 1908. Maurice Fitzmaurice CMG, Engineer"
NB the photo was digitally adjusted to make the tunnel interior more visible.
