Can anybody confirm or suggest an alternative street name please.

I read the address to be Rephidun Street on
1891
Source Citation: Class: RG12; Piece: 344; Folio 192; Page 21; GSU roll: 6095454.

I checked the addresses included in District 8 and it looks the same on there.

I have googled the street but can find no trace of it (I have always found mention of long since disappeared places before).

Any help please?

Thanks

Sue

I think it could be Rephidim Street, SE1
it is in the Bermondsey area of London, near junction of the A2 Dover Road and Tower Street
found it in London A-Z index
