Chapel Place largely followed the modern route of Hankey Place.
Chapel Place in Southwark, was named after a Methodist Chapel which was situated on one of its many bends. The street began as a short cul-de-sac leading off Long Lane with a path leading to the chapel in the 1820s. It appears to have been preceded by a tenter ground.
The road, along with its chapel, appearing on 1930s maps, seems to have disappeared by the time of 1950s mapping, suggesting that it didn’t survive the Second World War.
Hankey Place was largely laid out over the northern section of its route.
