Borough High Street is a road in Southwark, London running south-west from London Bridge forming part of the A3 route which runs from London to Portsmouth on the south coast of England. Before the building of Westminster Bridge, Borough High Street was the only connection from the south bank of the Thames to London, which lay on the north bank. As a major communications node for traffic between London and Portsmouth, Dover, south-east England generally and also travellers from Europe, Borough High Street had many coaching inns.

St Saviour's War Memorial is a war memorial on Borough High Street, in the former parish of Southwark St Saviour, to south of the River Thames in London. The statue stands on a high Portland stone pedestal with rounded ends. On its long sides are bronze reliefs one with biplanes to the west, and another with battleships to the east. On one side below the biplanes plaque is the inscription "Give honour to the men of St. Saviours Southwark who gave their lives for the empire 1914-1918. Their names are inscribed within the parish church. May their memory live forever in the minds of men." And on the other side below the battleships plaque is the inscription "This memorial was erected by the parishioners of Saint Saviour's Southwark in the year 1922." A model of the main figure was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1923.
