elebrating its warehouse vibe and labyrinthine maze of

Sunday Times has chosen the district as one of the best

places to live in the capital for the past five years.

The Fashion and Textile Museum, arthouse cinema Kino and White

Cube art gallery can be found alongside creative and tech businesses.

The area has become one of the top foodie destinations, with

colourful specialist produce street markets alongside culinary hotspot

restaurants, gastro-pubs, craft breweries and distillieries.

At the centre of this exciting district, London Square Bermondsey, a
