Historic buildings and sites
Service outline
Southwark is home to some of the most important architectural jewels of London.
From the historic London Bridge, the first bridge across the Thames, and the gothic Southwark Cathedral to the delights of Butler's Wharf where the history of the spice trade can still be seen in the names of the streets and the scent in the air, there is so much to see in the borough.
