In medieval times this led from the Abbey to the Thames. In the early 18th century there were still some market gardens here and waste from leatherworking was used as fertiliser, along with the contents of cess-pools beneath the local residences!

It is now a conservation area, having many fine 18th and 19th century buildings; number 78 is probably 17th century. noting the 18th /early 19th century terraces and later 19th century warehouses and factories.Tyer’s Gateway probably led to tanneries or market gardens, and was named after a local family.

Wool-stapling – dealing in wool - was another dominant local trade, a by-product of the leather industry. Thomas Pennant commented in 1791 ‘Bermondsey Street may at present be called the great Wool-Staple of our kingdom. Here reside numbers of merchants who supply Rochdale, Leicester, Derby, Exeter, and most other weaving counties…’
