Long Lane was always a notorious slum area and it is surprising the Council did not try and address the problem earlier. This part of Southwark was an old part of London with many bad slums. Most of the slums to the west of Borough High Street had been cleared by the turn of the century, but Long Lane was next and clearances began in the early 1900s. New buildings were slow to be built and much of the re-development did not take place until the 1920s. The cost of the scheme was probably the reason the re-development took so long. The whole area was riddled with slums and unscrupulous landlords who were keen to extract the most value from their land. The Booth map of the area in Fig. 1 shows the whole Long Lane area, with the bad housing in dark blue or black.

  • Historic Context
    Historic context Historical context Development of the site over time The proposals provide an opportunity to enhance the character and appearance of the area, and to preserve important views along Borough High Street. This area has experienced significant change over time, with particularly dramatic periods of development following the Great Fire of Southwark in 1676, the foundation of Guy’s Hospital in 1721, and the arrival of the railway at London Bridge in 1836. Today, the area’s rich history is poorly represented on this site by a collection of later buildings, most of which have no heritage value. In bringing forward these proposals, we are seeking to: • Reinforce the historic urban grain, creating a series of intimate and attractive spaces enclosed by architecture of the highest quality • Offer a considered and contextual response to the area’s established built form and palette of materials • Preserve the setting of the Grade I listed George Inn • Enhance public views through Borough High Street Conservation Area; including glimpsed views through the site The scheme has been informed by a detailed historical appraisal to ensure the proposals relate successfully to the historic environment and preserve the setting of heritage assets in the surrounding area.

  • County of SURREY
    SURREY Surrey is one of the ‘home counties’ in south-east England, just to the south of the city of London. It is bordered to the north by Berkshire and Middlesex, to the east by Kent, to the south by Sussex, and to the west by Hampshire. The north-eastern part of the county (Brixton hundred) was already urbanised by the start of the nineteenth century and was known as ‘South London’, while the southern part remained rural. The county received five sets of standards in 1825-6, and in 1835 four districts were set up. In 1855 there was a major reorganisation into ten districts: Three of them were in the Metropolitan Police area, and had full-time civilian inspectors, in the others the inspection was performed by officers of the county police force. The next major reorganisation took place in 1889, when the metropolitan parts of the county were transferred to the new London County Council. In the urban area there were separate jurisdictions in the 1820s and 1830s, including the boroughs of Southwark and Kingston, and several large parishes. The ancient borough of Guildford took over responsibility for Weights and Measures in 1856, and was later joined by the new boroughs of Croydon and Reigate; all these continued until 1974. In South London the trade in scales and weights was already flourishing in the first part of the nineteenth century, and by the end of the century some of the firms were quite large. Outside London, new businesses steadily appeared as the population grew. 1 A: Inspection by the county of SURREY Dates Events Marks Comments 1825 Four sets [38,39; 70,71] of In 1825 the four districts were standards issued; five examiners based on the hundreds: appointed.
