Bottom right?

Hmmm, are you perhaps mixing things around a bit? Though the Tulse Hill station is indeed at the bottom right of the photo, there is no Box there (how the sentence reads, at least as written, is that all three landmarks are at bottom right of the photo).

Box Z41 does appear have been captured in this photo at it's original location, however, but it's almost exactly centre frame of the shot, a little south of the southeast corner of that junction (top is north in this photo), which was in front of a Bank and diagonally across from the Tulse Hill Hotel, P.H. (not a "Tulse Tavern", though it was later known as the Tulse Hill Tavern). That is a couple blocks northwest of the Station, however.

Here's a blowup, with the Box at centre frame --

Good find, regardless Rob. Any info on when this photo was taken?

Apologies for my terrible grammar. I of course meant Tulse Hill Tavern and the image is 1950 on Britain from above
