Tower Bridge Road
Tower Bridge Road is a road in Bermondsey in the London Borough of Southwark, UK, that runs north to south, and connects the Bricklayers Arms roundabout and flyover at its southern end to Tower Bridge and across the River Thames at its northern.
The road has an abundance of antique (or junk) shops along part of its length. There is also Bermondsey Square which holds an 'Antique' Market every Friday morning, usually known as Bermondsey Market, though officially as New Caledonian Market.
Towards its southern end are a collection of shops, pubs and takeaways, which give it an almost village feel in that there are few large corporate chains, but instead a bakery, flower shop, hardware store and other shops.
If you move a few hundred metres north the scenery changes beyond all recognition. From here there are good views of the City of London (or 'City'), and other landmarks such as Tower of London, London Bridge and the HMS Belfast.
The road is the A100 (with Tower Bridge itself), and forms part of the London Inner Ring Road; as such it is part of the boundary of the congestion charging zone.
