Or perhaps Lloyds could take over and tie it into their current marketing:
Lloyds Bankside Station.... For the railway journey

I also agree with nelson on "whats our area called"
we came up with southwark village
this centres on the station
and is the cut, union st as north border, gt suffolk st as east border, st georges circus as southern border, and waterloo road as western border.
if bermondsey can have a village , so can we!
cheers

Yes, I do like that! Wonder if it would catch on? Estate agents would love it, I'm sure. Your suggestion seems to cover the "nameless" area well.

Although there is a slight confusion with an area of Dulwich called "Village Ward, Southwark" in elections:

According to the map here, the area where the Crown stands, and for quite a long way up Blackfriar's bridge road, was called St George's fields.
How about we call the area "St George's"?
