| Name | Sainsburys, Clapham High Street |
| Distance | 0.16 miles from SW4 7JR |
| Description | A horse tram depot was originally built here in 1885 and converted for electric trams in 1904. The sheds were badly damaged during the war and were rebuilt in 1950 as a bus garage. In 1958 the garage closed and two years later it was used by the Museum of British Transport, until 1973. From 1979 to 1987 it was a bus garage again until it ended its days as an indoor go-kart operation. In 1996 all of this went to be replaced by a Sainsbury?s superstore.
