The location of the picture is in the Old Kent Road c1904, at (or rather under) the former Old Kent Road and Hatcham station on the London Brighton and South Coast Railway's South London line. This station opened on 13th August 1866. Until 1st June 1911 there was also a passenger service onto the East London line, something which returned in 2012 as part of London Overground. The station closed temporarily on 1st January 1917 as a First World War economy measure but was never reopened afterwards.
