132-146 / Pullens Buildings

Typical entrance to Victorian tenements built by James Pullen, 1886-1901. Arch ornamentation is of terracotta with high relief keystone and capitals, possibly the work of the Jennings Pottery of Poole, Dorset. Now part of the Pullens Estate Conservation Area, although it took direct action by locals to save the buildings from demolition in the 1980s. Amelia Street, London Borough of Southwark.
