The graffiti writer Banksy rented a disused road tunnel in South London from Network Rail to have an art exhibition called Banksy Cans in 2008. The space was then opened to public use, for graffiti writers to practice. Since then the space has became a "free wall" as Banksy is still renting it. There has been various graffiti festivals/events took place in the area since then.
