Blackfriars Road c1950, a No. 26 Tram coming out of Southwark Street (right). Hopton Street warehouse is also on the right. The building in the far background is the Unilever World Headquarters, Victoria Embankment. My Mum used to do office cleaning in there in the late 1940s early 50s and some mornings (5 or 6am) she would take me with her, at that time it was called Unilever House. :)

This part of Holland Street is no longer there, it later changed to Hopton Street. This corner became Blackfriars Railway Goods Station.

This end of Davidge Street no longer exists, and all the buildings have been demolished and the area redeveloped. This part of Davidge Street was previously known as Friars Place and leading to Little Surrey Street.
