Property for sale in Bermondsey

It was from Bermondsey riverside that the painter J.M.W. Turner executed his famous painting of The Fighting "Temeraire" as she was towed to her last berth to be broken up. London's first passenger railway terminus was built by the London to Greenwich Railway in 1836 at London Bridge, connecting Bermondsey with Greenwich. To the east of Tower Bridge, Bermondsey's 3½ miles of riverside were lined with warehouses and wharves, of which the best known is Butler's Wharf. After standing derelict for some years, many of the wharves were redeveloped during the 1980s. They have been converted into a mixture of residential and commercial accommodation and have become some of the most upmarket and expensive properties in London. In 1997, US President Bill Clinton and Prime Minister Tony Blair visited the area to dine at the Pont de la Tour restaurant at Butler's Wharf.
