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?


A few years ago there was still an illuminated sign at the bottom of
the escalators at Warwick Avenue which showed 'Camberwell' (I'm not
sure if it said 'Green') after Elephant & Castle. It had been painted
out, but some of the paint had come off, and you could make out what
it said.
