	Elephant and Castle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Elephant and Castle, commonly shortened to the Elephant, is a major road intersection in inner south London, and is also used as a name for the surrounding district.
		The Elephant is also home to Elephant and Castle station, Skipton House (housing the Department of Health), London South Bank University, London College of Communication, the Ministry of Sound nightclub and the Metropolitan Tabernacle.
		The elephant and castle symbol was also used in a trade that made a far more important contribution to the London economy.

	40 years of the Elephant's shopping centre [23 April 2005]
		A week of celebrations marking the 40th anniversary of the Elephant and Castle Shopping Centre ended in high tension as a crowd gathered to watch the prize draw for a car.
		The celebrations were perhaps dampened by the knowledge that the centre is unlikely to see its 50th birthday; though few would claim to love the building, the future for the quirky mix of shops it houses is perhaps less than certain.
		The regeneration of the Elephant and Castle moved a step closer this week with announcement of the shortlist for Southwark Council's commercial development partner.

	Questions & Answers: Elephant and Castle
		As you say, it’s often asserted that the name is a corruption of Infanta de Castile, usually said to be a reference to Eleanor of Castile, the wife of Edward I (in Spain and Portugal, the infanta was the eldest daughter of the monarch without a claim to the throne).

		The public house called the Elephant and Castle was converted about 1760 from a smithy that had had the same name and sign.
