Steve if you look on Google Maps and then go to Streetview you'll see the path between 80 and 82 Lilford Road, leading to the open space. The terrace of 6 houses with no. 82 next to the path had been beautifully renovated by 2015. But look back at previous years on Streetview and on the side wall of no.82 about half way up there is a patch of brickwork appearing a different colour, black and white rather than the yellow of the brickwork. I know this because we visited there in 2011 when it was all very run down. I could just make out 'Foreign Street SE5' on that patch and I took some photos. If you'd like to see the photos I can email them to you. Regards, Chris

Here's an interesting map showing the location of Foreign Street and the Blitz bombing
