Peckham Arch, Modern architectural structure in Peckham, United Kingdom
The Peckham Arch spans 35 meters across the northern section of Rye Lane, featuring integrated lighting elements that illuminate the structure during evening hours.
Constructed in 1994 by architects Troughton McAslan, the arch represented the first phase of urban development projects aimed at transforming the Peckham district.
The structure stands as a central meeting point for local residents, marking the entrance to Peckham Square and connecting to the adjacent modernist Peckham Library.
Located near multiple transport links, the arch provides shelter during rainfall and serves as a reference point for orientation in the neighborhood.
The structure incorporates a light sculpture created by artist Ron Haselden, which changes the appearance of the arch through different illumination patterns.
