Tabard Street
Tabard Street, formerly known as Kent Street, is one of South London's most ancient routes, the old road to Greenwich, Canterbury and Dover. It follows the alignment of a Roman road (archaeological work at Tabard Street in 2004 discovered a plaque with the earliest reference to 'London' from the Roman period on it). The mediaeval road ran through open country, but it has long since been built up. For a detailed history see Link
