The protestors left Kennington Park at about 11:30am:
There's also a video of the march on Facebook here, and if you want to view the photos or make any comments on the march, there's a Facebook page set up and dedicated to Kennington here.
There are more photos of spitfires and tanks also processing up from Camberwell Green to Kennington Park over here which notes that the props (including Trojan horse) were created by art students at Camberwell.
Also, take a look at the photos from Peter Marshall, showing the range of different people at Kennington Park, from Latin American community groups to Councillor Kingsley Adams (local independent Labour councillor) and families to Ted Knight (old Lambeth leader). Lots of Unison members, teachers etc.
And (edit 6:4/2011), I've added some more photos of the march gathering in Kennington Park, with permission from Indymedia from whom they're sourced:

The march through Kennington was fairly good mannered. From the people I saw marching, I only saw two dressed is black with face masks.
Wrong. The entire Black Block started here, which has been reported widely. Happy to send the photo through. I'd say there were about 100 of them.
Yes, I'd agree that all of the anarchists (along with a whole bunch of other people) were to begin at Kennington Park, so I'd expect to see more than two people wearing black. I'm very happy to add a photo of the anarchists to this post so that an historical record might be kept accurate.
I'm not suggesting that because I only saw two people, that there were only two people. I wasn't at Kennington Park so i can't comment about that, but from the crowd I saw walking through Kennington Cross, it was mostly protestors of the non-violent kind. From my vantage point, anyway.
I think adding other photos would help to show the range of people. Looking forward to seeing them.
