Hi there - the road to the right is Dargon Rd (hence George & Dragon pub!). I lived other end of the Dragon Rd loop 1953-60 then moved round the corner to St Georges Way 1960-67 then we were then rehoused due to the clearance. Dragon Rd disappeared with the building of the Nth Peckham Estate but it's now reinstated following the latter's demise! John

Hi John (profjohn) welcome to the site and thanks for the information. Did you mean the road to the right is/was Dragon Rd not Dargon Road? I thought it might be Birdlip Close but that was probable further back towards Wells Way,so thanks for putting me right. As you say it has changed so much in that area and Dragon Road is now further back. Am I right that the corner where the pub was is now called Comfort Street.? Ray (kiwi).

St Georges Way 2019, roughly the same location as the picture above. The bridge to nowhere is now in Burgess Park.
A better picture of the bridge can be seen in the Albany Road Topic (page2).

St Georges Way, Surrey Canal Bridge, c1979. Now Burgess Park.

A screen from the 1962 Walworth School film "Two Bob's Worth of Trouble". The 'totter' was 'Ribena' Wallington and his wife Dorothy.

St George's Way 1962. The picture was taken from the footbridge leading to Neate Street which is now in Burgess Park (picture above). The houses in front have been replaced by Gloucester Grove Estate c1978.

I think this is the same bridge same location as the picture above, coming out at St Georges Way, it looks similar. The other end as I remember it came out in Neate Street opposite The Queen Pub?
