‘SUBTERRANEAN SOUTHWARK’ by Christopher Jones

[Imogen]

Excellent Book, quote from the back :-

‘Disused Tube Lines, Nuclear Bunkers, Crypts and Catacombs, Underground Toilets, Rivers, Spas and Wells, Thames Tunnels, Rumours and Remnants * ever wondered what’s under the Southwark soil? Which tunnels, subways, bunkers, and hiding holes are right beneath our feet? Whether it’s a mile or so of disused Northern Line or the long lost Camber Well, a secret passage way for 18th century villains or an emergency exit shaft for the Jubilee Line * this booklet reveals all!’


Each of the nine chapters finishes with gazetteers and references.

[Yikes!]

If you want this book, which is a nice little read - you can get a copy from Peckham library's local history library. So interesting facts and fictions...

I know a lot of this info is known, but its nice to have it in a booklet/ book on the shelf.
