Based in and around a series of restored and reconceived railway arches, Borough Yards is a new chapter for Southwark and the wider Borough Market area."

It adds: "Borough Yards is an unrivalled location. On the Thames’ south bank, along with Borough Market our immediate neighbour, we’re a two-minute walk from London Bridge station and just 10 minutes from London’s financial district, Shakespeare’s Globe, Tate Modern, and much more."
