Paynes and Borthwick Wharf
This historic riverside industrial site was largely demolished from 2004, with the facades only being saved by a high court injunction in 2006. The facade of Borthwick Wharf fronts onto Borthwick Street, and the 'Italianate' arcade of the 19th century Paynes Wharf faces the Thames. They are listed grade 2 (list entry 1067833).
Plans for redevelopment of the site fell victim to the recession, and as of 2011 there was still no construction activity on the site, though it was being advertised as a film location. Construction resumed in 2012 and was complete by 2014.
