Pupils at the Rotherhithe New Road Nautical School in 1933.
The original location was in Rotherhithe as an annex of the Rotherhithe New Road School in 1915. In 1937 the school gained its own site in Silwood Street and became known as The London Nautical School. In 1965 it moved to Broadwall, Waterloo, and then to Stamford Street, Waterloo.

Nah - it's still therehttps://goo.gl/maps/SVVt12DhnYNrZUmH7

And do you see the sleeve that was retrofitted halfway up it? I reckon that's where the sewer gas lamps used to be.

I believe you are looking at two different locations. One is junction of Abbeyfield road, Rotherhithe New Road & Hawkestone road. The second picture is the junction of Rotherhithe new road and Lower road.
