Site of former St Stephen's church, Villa Street, Walworth
Villa Street runs north-south for 400 metres through Walworth. Comparison with old maps shows that this open area near the southern end of the street was the site of St Stephen's Anglican church, a large church (allegedly seating 2000, but such figures are to be taken with a pinch of salt), built c.1866 (architect H Jarvis) and demolished c.1956.

Dead end of Villa Street, Walworth
Villa Street runs north-south for 400 metres through Walworth. Starting with 19th century and then early 20th century housing at the north end, it progresses to these less attractive late 20th century blocks at the southern end. Before redevelopment the street ran through to Albany Road; now there is only a narrow pedestrian route through.

Burgess Park, manmade knoll and bank slide
One of the geometric knolls on the north side of the park has a long path up its ridge with a slide down the short slope into the new play area. In the background is a slab of the Aylesbury estate and, beyond it, the Shard near London Bridge station.

New play area in Burgess Park, Walworth, south London
The triangular mound (easily shaped with earth-moving machinery) supports a slide and cunningly screens the site from Albany Road and a car park. In the background, catching the sun, is Wendover, the most northeasterly of the high slabs of flats on the Aylesbury Estate Image The Shard is also in view (true of many places now).

Grass verge, Albany Road
There were once terraced houses along here. The redevelopment of the area in the 1960s set the new housing blocks back from the road, leaving room for a wide verge.

Gaitskell House, Beaconsfield Road, Walworth
This appears to be more recent, and more attractive, housing than the 1970s buildings on the estate.
