Trinity Church School - Rotherhithe Street, SE16
Situated at the junction with Bryan Road, built in 1836 being arranged by the Rev Edward Blick - rector of St Mary's from 1835 until his death on 25-06-1867. The school closed in 1910 with the opening of Redriff Road school some 500 yards east in Rotherhithe Street. One wall bears the mark of the 1928 flood and is 3'-2" from ground level. Main floods of the area were in 1881, 1904, 1928 and 1953 - the 'main' meaning that boats had to be used to get essentials to marooned families. Currently contains a toddlers' group and a security firm. See second image http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1483023

Surrey Commercial Dock Tavern pub - Rotherhithe Street, SE16
Seems a shame how this historic pub has been depicted. Opened about 1865 as the name of the title and was then at the junction with Derrick Street. Its postal address has varied from 351 Rotherhithe Street (1918) to 1 Redriff Road (1960) and then in 1970 back to its original address. Between 1920-28 it was known worldwide, via foreign seamen, as the "Fitchetts" after Mr Fitchett the licensee. For many years a lamp in the shape of a barrel bearing the name Fitchett hung outside the front. This disappeared in the late 1970s. It is believed the pub was built on the site of the 'Union Jack Beer House' 1832 - possibly 1865. As may be seen, it's now the 'Aardvark'

Prince of Prussia pub (site of) Derrick Street, Rotherhithe, London, SE16
This stood from 1860 to 1874 ending as a restaurant - not a cafe, as many other Rotherhithe pubs did. In the late 1930's the Redriff Estate was built over Derrick Street and in particular the building shown. This, since the 1980's has been called Walker House. See image 'Redriff Estate' http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1509041 that will explain the large open area.
