Lambeth High Street runs southwards from St Mary’s church, Lambeth to join Black Prince Road.

Lambeth High Street is now not a typical high street but over a century ago it was. It had also been called Back Lane.

It was a place for traders connected with the river or with pottery. John Doulton’s works opened here in 1815 and later so did Stiff’s pottery.
