South Bermondsey
Southwark, London
South Bermondsey sits between Bermondsey and New Cross, around the Old Kent Road and Millwall's ground. The character shifts between Victorian terraces in the west and inter-war and post-war housing estates east of the railway. Eight listed buildings include the Grade II* Church of St Augustine, the Grade II railway bridge and the Grade II White House. Public transport is moderate via South Bermondsey on the Southeastern line, twenty-seven outstanding schools lie within reach, and food-and-drink provision along Southwark Park Road is active. Bermondsey Spa Gardens gives a small pocket of park at just under two hectares. The drawbacks: green cover is thin at under four hectares; safety readings sit below the London average, driven by the Old Kent Road corridor and match-day footfall; and the market score reflects pressure from the Bermondsey regeneration wave to the north.
