The site was cleared and new flats erected shortly after this photograph was taken.

Crescent was built at the same time as John Woods’s Royal Crescent in Bath, between 1768 and 1774 to the designs of George Dance the Younger.

The original Lion pub can just be seen on the right corner and at the far end on the same side was The Windsor Castle. Both pubs survived the pre and post war slum clearance of the houses by Bermondsey Borough Council. The Lion was replaced in 1961 on the corner of Spa Road but The Windsor was demolished c.1965 and never rebuilt. The same view nowadays would include high modern flats to the left.
