Or if the building is still there! This was possibly ran by a German family by the name of Muller / Schopf or Rettner? If you have any information or photographs, please contact me on this site? I appreciate any help! :-) Post reply -->London Walworth Mike 18 Feb Walworth Merrow Street - Ministry of WorksIn the '60's I was an Apprentice in Merrow Street for the Ministry of Works at the workshops on the Southern side of Merrow Street close to the junction with Walworth Road. I see from Google Earth there is a housing development there now. Would love to hear Mail-me from anyone who knows the history of the premises as it was pretty old when I worked there!! Some old work-mates I would love to hear from/about are 'Sugar' Bill Robinson who was also a boxer and guitarist. Spent some good times with him at the Manor Place Baths fights and at the Thomas A'beckett where he trained and played in a band. 'Smudger' Smith the foreman and I think lived in Amelia Street. Paul Crisp, also an apprentice living Bromley.

They lived at 99 South Street (renamed Dawes Street in 1937) from about 1903 on until the start of the war. I believe the side of South Street (now Dawes) where they lived was demolished in the 1960s to build a big council flats Mail-me Post reply -->London Walworth Tom Cooper 14 Nov Walworth where was southwark regisitry office in walworth road^ WalworthWalworth ABC Cinema.
