The Mandela Way T-34 Tank is located on a small piece of scrubland on the corner of Mandela Way and Pages Walk in Bermondsey, London. The tank is a non-functional Soviet T-34 battle tank.

Owned by Russell Gray, who lives nearby, the tank was the subject of a work by Cubitt Artists and Aleksandra Mir who painted it pink in 2002. It has since been repainted (and also graffitied).
