Southwark Cathedral
Hemmed in by railway and road, there are few spacious views of the cathedral.

 
 
 
 
You might guess the name "Southwark" came from "South - walk" but in fact it comes from "Surrey (defensive) works".
Southwark was the first suburb of  London and part of it is called "The Borough", predating the now numerous London boroughs.
