Southern part of Villa Street, Walworth
Villa Street runs north-south for about 400 metres through Walworth, and along its length can be seen a variety of housing from the mid-19th to late 20th century.
Heading south, there is an abrupt change from pre- to post-war housing at the junction with Inville Street. This is looking south under a footbridge linking two housing blocks at second floor level.

Inville Road, Walworth
Villa Street runs north-south for about 400 metres through Walworth, and along its length can be seen a variety of housing from the mid-19th to late 20th century.
Heading south, there is an abrupt change from pre- to post-war housing at the junction with Inville Street (which actually functions as a back street for resident access, rather than a through route). The footbridge gives access to the rear door of a housing block at second floor level. From here south to Albany Road is the Aylesbury Estate.

Villa Street medical centre, Walworth
Villa Street runs north-south for about 400 metres through Walworth, and along its length can be seen a variety of housing from the mid-19th to late 20th century.
This striking building, 47 Villa Street on the corner of Merrow Street, is an Edwardian building (c.1906) and originally formed part of the Church Commissioners' Octavia Hill Estate. At various times it has been a mother and child clinic, a refuge, a depot and a squat, but most recently converted in 2003 by Avanti Architects into a medical centre. Cycle stands are provided for clients. Source: http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20110118095356/http://www.cabe.org.uk/case-studies/villa-street-medical-centre/design
