Whatever happened to the extension south of E&C?

The 1949 plan shown on the map was abandoned because of cost (before the
war a similar plan had been curtailed to just a 515-foot siding beyond
Elephant).


and where was it gonna be extended to?

In that particular incarnation, Camberwell (Green). For more detail, see
the History section of:

ISTR hearing a long time ago that there were murmurings of this
proposal staging Yet Another Comeback.

Personally I think it will never see the light of day, unless Kenny L
can find the cash in his 3bilGBP TfL package.

Certainly little likelihood at the moment at Cross River Transit covers
a significant proportion of Walworth and Peckham (although not Camberwell).

Transport plans for Walworth Road and Camberwell include re-opening the
former stations there, on the Thameslink service to Sutton/Wimbledon.
Those plans are very sketchy though.
