I think this is looking towards the Old Kent Road, if so the Elephant & Castle Pub would have been at the far end on the left.

It's not Tustin Street, it's Ormside Street. The Regal can be seen on the other side of Old Kent Road. The tall building is The Rising Sun.kiwi wrote:I think this is looking towards the Old Kent Road, if so the Elephant & Castle Pub would have been at the far end on the left.
