Parnell's department store, with entrances on Vauxhall Bridge Road and on Wilton Road. Later the site of Woolworth's. Currently (2013) Argos, office blocks and the Willow Walk public house.
Willow Walk was the historical lane now known as Warwick Way nearby. Basketware for the market gardens of the Neate Houses (modern Pimlico) was made from the willows which grew there.
The 1960s cut-through from Vauxhall Bridge Road to Wilton Road was named Neathouse Place. |

The former London Brighton and South Coast Railway station in 1928 part of the combine Southern Railway. The shape of the two stations reflect to different way of operating terminal stations - the platforms of the long Brighton station being able to accommodate two train nose to tail with third line between the outer half of the platforms to allow the departing trains to pass the later arrival. The South Eastern platforms could only take one train with some having rather narrow extensions under the Eccleston Road bridge to accommodate longer trains such as the Dover boat trains. |

The Southern Railway's first act was to knock a hole in the wall between the two stations and make them one. |
