This part of Bermondsey Wall East was formerly Rotherhithe Street.
In the rare 1922 photo below, that's Alfred Hitchcock (with moustache?) squatting beside the camera and gesturing across the road at actress Clare Greet. The occasion was the filming of Number Thirteen (aka Mrs Peabody) on location outside the public house, "The Angel", in Rotherhithe, London.

Cherry Gardens is a small, recently created public garden between the river and Bermondsey Wall East. Cherry trees grow there, echoing and commemorating the cherry orchard that flourished here in the 17th century.

Surrey and Kent Duffield Sluice.
This was part of the drainage system that kept the south bank free from flooding Main sewer from Duffield Sluice near Cherry Garden, Rotherhithe to the dead head near Lambeth Palace; Duffield Sewer from the west end of Spa Road to its outlet at Duffield Sluice; Duffield sluice {we think they mean ‘sewer’} from the place it takes the water near Lambeth Palace to where it empties itself at Bermondsey Wall; Duffield Sewer from the Bricklayers Arms to Star Corner and to the west end of Spa Road.
- SLUICE
- Plaque on side of building.
- Built in 1822 to house the operating mechanism and living accommodation for the sluice-keeper at the Surrey and Kent Duffield Sluice, Bermondsey Wall East.

I'd often wondered about that building. Thanks for the intro, kiwi. There's a fascinating page on the Duffield Sluice at
