These are the only reminders of the large and interesting ********** family who once lived on Herne Hill. Few people know much about them now, despite the entries of Bicknell and one of his sons in the "National Bio­ graphy": the fact that another son founded a Museum: that Bicknell and yet another son wrote books on the flora of the Mediterranean which are still used for reference purposes by the Royal Horticultural Society: that another son was one of the first Englishmen to climb the Matterhorn, and that the family vault is on the West Norwood Cemetery Tomb Trail. Elhanan Bicknell was born in Southwark in 1778, the son of a schoolmaster. After short periods working as an assistant teacher at his father's school in Tooting, and training to be a gentleman farmer, he entered into partnership with a cousin in a business with interests in shipping and the Pacific sperm-whale industry. In a later census he is described as "shipowner and mer­ chant". Certainly by 1818, at the age of 40, he was successful enough and wealthy enough to purchase land on Herne Hill, next to the Casina House Estate, and there build the substantial 'Carlton House'. His estate covered most of the present Danecroft Road to Frankfurt Road, opposite No.28 Herne Hill, the first home of the Ruskin family. He married four times and had thirteen children. By the time he was 37 he had lost two wives, but his third marriage lasted 21 years and he and his wife had eight children.

  • Dulwich Helpline and Southwark Churches Care (DH&SCC)
    Case Study: Dulwich Helpline and Southwark Churches Care (DH&SCC) The Dementia Project, Southwark, South London. DH&SCC is a Charity offering activity and social groups to improve the quality of life and the physical and mental health of isolated older residents in Southwark. Its vision is to support older people in feeling part of their community and the life that is going on around them. The Charity recognised that there was limited support available locally for people attending its groups recently diagnosed with dementia. To fill this gap funding was secured to set up The Dementia Project to help alleviate the increased feelings of isolation and loneliness reported by those newly diagnosed and to increase access to support for those less in touch with local services. The project involves two groups, a fortnightly reading group and a fortnightly support group. The Dementia Project is managed by a by a paid co-ordinator, supported by a project worker and volunteers.

  • World War One Interactive Map Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE from The Herne Hill Society World War One Interactive Map A joint venture by the Herne Hill Society, Dulwich Society and other local groups to commemorate the centenary of World War One. The Herne Hill Society, with the Dulwich Society and the Friends of Norwood Cemetery, has launched an online interactive map to commemorate the centenary of World War One. So far the map features nearly 50 locations in the Herne Hill, Dulwich and Norwood. More will be added. It can be seen at http://tiny.cc/ww1-interactive-map The online map indicates the contribution the area made to the war effort, as well as the impact on the lives of local people. For example, it is not generally known that in 1917 German Gotha aircraft dropped bombs in Dulwich Village, killing two people. Other sites include a school where girls decided to forego their school prizes and use the money to buy wool and knit clothes for soldiers at the Front. There were the Wellcome Laboratories on Brockwell Park (now demolished) where scientific research led to serums and vaccines that saved the lives of countless soldiers. The Sunray Estate of post-War ‘Homes Fit for Heroes’ is there, as are the military hospitals set up at King’s College, the Maudsley and East Dulwich. A number of attacks on shops with German-sounding names are pin- pointed, together with a petition from residents of Frankfurt Road in Herne Hill to change the name of their 'Germanic' street – and much more. The map, built with Google’s MapEngine, also features many war memorials, with over 2,200 names of servicemen associated with this small part of South London who were killed in World War One.

  • 1. Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill 1.1
    1. Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill 1.1. Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill Area Vision 1.1.1. Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill are: • On the boundary of Lambeth, Croydon and Bromley; • An edge of town centre location situated to the north of Upper Norwood District Town Centre; • Characterised by a range of housing types including Victorian terrace and semi-detached family housing, typical of a 19th-century railway suburb, alongside more modern housing types; • An area with plentiful public open spaces and in close proximity to Crystal Palace Park, Dulwich Upper Wood and Norwood Park offering panoramic views towards Central London. • Accessible by rail from mainline stations to Gipsy Hill station and bus routes, however there is no tube connection and the area is less well served by public transport than many other parts of Southwark. 1.1.2. Development in Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill should: • Preserve and enhance the character of Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill; • Complement, and not detract from, the economic function of Upper Norwood town centre; • Provide as many homes as possible across a range of tenures including social housing; • Prioritise walking and cycling and improve public transport to reduce pressure on car parking and improve accessibility; • Support improvements to local connectivity and accessibility including enhanced public transport, walking and cycling routes; • Support improvements to local services to meet local needs, including for school places and GP provision. 1.1.3. Growth opportunities in Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill: Whilst development opportunities in Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill are relatively limited, the area has the potential to contribute towards meeting Southwark’s housing need.
