Most named junctions have lost the things they were named after,
mostly knocked down cinemas or factories

Or long-departed undertakers in the case of Chalker's Corner (where
the A316 crosses the South Circular in Mortlake).

Chalkers were still there within my memory (i.e. the last ten years or
so, when I was at school in the area...)

And mine. Their name always amused my dad. "Chalker and Gamble" has a
certain something for a undertaker's.
