Unlike Guy's, the nearby St Thomas' Hospital was moved to Lambeth in 1871. The only part that remains in Southwark is the Old Operating Theatre, which we visited a few years ago (photo by Roger Johnson)

The tower of the Old Operating Theatre is prominent, but we are directly outside Guy's Hospital - though the signs by the gates say "King's College London"! (photo by Roger Johnson)
Sherlock Holmes Society of London:
From St Thomas Street, we enter this splendid quadrangle, with the statue of the hospital's founder, John Guy. Jean Upton is properly impressed! (photo by Roger Johnson)

Sherlock Holmes Society of London:
The Gordon Museum of Pathology is on at least three floors of the Hodgkin Building - but photography is forbidden in the Museum, so that's it ... Sorry! (photo by Roger Johnson)
