TUM image id: 1625068922 Licence:	Berner Street (now Henriques Street), April 1909. The cartwheel indicates the entrance to Dutfield’s Yard. The street first appeared on Horwood’s map of 1807 when it was little more than an incomplete cul-de-sac. Possibly named after Charles Berner, a trustee of the vestry of St George-in-the-east, it had become fully developed by the 1830s. The Berner Street/Dutfield’s Yard area was demolished in 1909 to make way for a new school which is today the Harry Gosling Primary School. TUM image id: 1490915970 Licence:	Max Bygraves at 55 Swan Road, Rotherhithe (1974) There was a pub - The Watermans Arms - on the corner of Swan Road and Kenning Street. It closed in 1907 to be replaced by a corner shop. Max Bygraves was born in the council flat buildings next to the shop.

The long range of late 17th century dwellings of Pennington Street stood directly opposite the towering walls and warehouses of London Docks, which they pre-dated - hence the raised level of road surface which provided access to the Docks. By the early twentieth century, many older buildings such as these, offered rooms and lodgings for the working poor, who are gathered here outside their houses. TUM image id: 1681900774 Licence:
