"The health of the people is the highest law". The Walworth Clinic was one of a series of pioneering health centres built at the end of the 1930s and was statutorily listed Grade II in 2010. On 25 September 1937 the Health Services Department of the Metropolitan Borough of Southwark was opened on the corner of Larcom Street, adjacent to the library. The Walworth Clinic, brought all the borough’s health services under one roof for the first time. The building was designed by the borough engineer Percy Smart in the ‘Moderne’ style. A red brick building with artificial stone dressings in a jazzy Deco style, the statues of the mother and child on the roof indicate the clinic's association with family health. '
