The neighbourhood is quiet, despite being near so many amenities. Since we bought it five years ago we’ve put in a new kitchen & bathroom; painted & wallpapered all the walls and carpeted & tiled every floor. We left here to get married and brought our baby home here. We hosted our parents for Christmas dinner and had sun-downers on the balcony in the summer. The location is ideal, near Tulse Hill, Herne Hill and West Norwood stations. We’re 20 minutes from central London via Tulse Hill station or 35 minutes via bus and Brixton tube station. We get to park outside our flat permitting and cost free too, which is a plus. We know and talk to all our neighbours in our small block and 3 years ago the residents association was setup. There’s also a community hall for hire which is very nearby where we hosted our baby's christening party. We’re a 5 minute walk from Brockwell park with its picnic spots, lido, miniature railway and park runs. There’s the Tulse Hill Hotel for lunch or a drink and two breweries next to the park (Bullfinch & Canopy).

Lambeth's Creative & Digital Industries Strategy for Growth
Creative ways to grow. Lambeth’s Creative & Digital Industries Strategy for Growth Contents Foreword 3 Our vision 4 Our strategy 7 Building on our strengths 19 Meeting the challenges 31 Making it happen 56 Working in partnership 69 ActionSpace Lambeth’s Creative & Digital Industries Strategy for Growth 1 Foreword For the first time the council has taken a look at the current performance and future potential of Lambeth as a creative and digital hub. Our strategy identifies the opportunities and threats; the benefits of growth for our our residents, businesses and places; and how we can encourage and support this dynamic sector. It is the result of truly co-productive work. Over many months we have brought together creative and digital businesses, education providers, trade bodies, young residents, thought leaders and social entrepreneurs. We have explored individual and collective ambitions. We have recognised the challenges and how we might achieve success. Now we have the foundation and commitment to make Lambeth the next destination and, in time, leader for London’s creative and digital economy. Lambeth Council has a pivotal role to play in growing the sector. It has a unique opportunity. We welcome, encourage and work in partnership with businesses and we expect that collaboration to benefit our community. Lambeth has all the right elements to build thriving and sustainable creative and digital clusters. Our strategy is a clear commitment to achieve this aim. It fits within the borough’s Strategic Plan, Future Lambeth, which draws on Lambeth’s strengths, potential and values to transform its goals into reality.

Trams in Brixton 1870 - 1951
TRAMS IN BRIXTON 1870 - 1951 Horse Trams Two Acts of Parliament, passed in 1869 and 1870, empowered the Metropolitan Street Tramways Company to construct tramways from the Lambeth end of Westminster Bridge to Brixton and to Clapham. The company got to work quickly; they lost no time in laying down double tracks with rails level with the surface of the road. 2 May 1870 was an important day in Brixton's history. It was the day when the first authorised tramcars operated in London. 1 The new trams ran that day from the Horns Tavern in Kennington Road and along Brixton Road as far as its junction with Stockwell Road. The smart blue tramcars were hauled by two horses. Cars seated 22 persons inside and 24 on the open top deck. The passengers inside sat on red velvet cushions. For top deck passengers were two wooden benches running the length of the tram; these passengers faced outwards. Trams ran every five minutes. The normal fare was a penny a mile but Parliament had required special trams to be run for workmen in the morning and evenings at a halfpenny a mile.2 As soon as the 1870 Act was passed more track laying was rushed on with, and by the end of 1870 trams were in service from the Lambeth end of Westminster Bridge to St Matthew's church, Brixton, and another line ran along Clapham Road to the Swan at Stockwell. During 1871 tramcars had reached the Plough at Clapham, and the Brixton Line had been extended to the junction of Brixton Water Lane.

Brixton and Clapham Park PCN Patient Group Meeting
Brixton and Clapham Park PCN Patient group meeting Notes of meeting held on Zoom 14 April 2021. Present: Nicola Kingston (Chair), Dr Jennie Parker (Chair of PCN, Hetherington), Dave Ball, Ros Borley, Pippa Cardale, Jenny Cobley, Mr & Mrs Day, Craig Givens, Lucy Ismail, Christine Jacobs, Ernestine Montgomerie, Chris Newman (Managing Partner, Clapham Park), Rebecca McNair, Liz Dunbar, Rev Funke Ogbede, Esigbemi Osoba, Martin Pratt, David Ritchie, Maureen Simpson, Sara Taffinder, Peter Woodward. Apologies: Dr Andrew Boyd (Clapham Park), Barbara Wilson, Paulina Tamborrel Signoret (Citizens UK Lambeth). 1. Welcome and introductions. Nicola welcomed everyone and introductions were made. Jenny Cobley agreed to take the notes. 2. Update on the Covid Vaccination programme and surge testing for Covid variants. Dr Jennie Parker reported on the vaccination programme, which is going smoothly at Hetherington Group Practice (HGP), where they now have cover over the waiting area outside. The final delivery of Pfizer vaccine for second doses was due this weekend . The Oxford Astra Zeneca (OAZ) vaccine would also be available for second doses next week, and for those in groups 1-9 who have not yet had the vaccine and for those 45+ years. Chris Newman is organising the vaccination team, they are training more staff, St John’s ambulance personnel and medical students as vaccinators, as the vaccination programme is likely to continue for some months. There is always a lead GP on duty. An increase in uptake among ethnic minority groups has been seen in our area. Uptake of vaccines is 77% overall, with 89% among white, 81% Asian and 65% black patients.

The Charter Quay Site, Kingston, Documentary Research Report
THE CHARTER QUAY SITE, KINGSTON, DOCUMENTARY RESEARCH REPORT Dr Christopher Phillpotts, BA, MA, PhD, AIFA The Saxon period The topography of Kingston in the Saxon period consisted of low islands of gravel capped with brickearth, standing proud of the alluvial marshland of the Thames floodplain. The central Kingston island lay between the course of the Thames to the west, two branches of the River Hogsmill to the south and east, and the Downhall/Latchmere Channel to the north. Trench 3 of the site lay on the western edge of this island at the confluence of the Thames and the southern branch of the Hogsmill. To the south lay a series of smaller gravel islands running parallel with the course of the Thames. Trenches 1 and 2 of the site lie on the north- west part of the northernmost of these islands, adjacent to the Hogsmill (Hawkins 1996, 4.2; Hawkins 1998, 271-2). The evidence of recent excavations suggests that early Saxon settlement in the area was concentrated on the island to the south of the Hogsmill. Occupation evidence of the sixth and seventh centuries was found here at South Lane, including at least one substantial hall building. Other activities were taking place on the higher ground to the east of the central Kingston island, although these may have been of an agricultural character. The central island was probably unoccupied at this period (Hawkins 1998, 273, 275-6, 278). By the eighth century the focus of settlement had shifted to the central Kingston island. The excavated evidence of the late Saxon period here is characterised by ditches dug into the brickearth to drain the low-lying island and mark out property boundaries (Hawkins 1996, 5.3.4, 5.3.5; Hawkins 1998, 276-8).
