  • New-Build `Gentrification' and London's Riverside Renaissance
    Environment and Planning A 2005, volume 37, pages 1165 ^ 1190 DOI:10.1068/a3739 New-build `gentrification' and London's riverside renaissance Mark Davidson, Loretta Lees Department of Geography, King's College London, Strand, London WC2R 2LS, England; e-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Received 3 February 2004; in revised form 5 August 2004 Abstract. In a recent conference paper Lambert and Boddy (2002) questioned whether new-build residential developments in UK city centres were examples of gentrification. They concluded that this stretched the term too far and coined `residentialisation' as an alternative term. In contrast, we argue in this paper that new-build residential developments in city centres are examples of gentrification. We argue that new-build gentrification is part and parcel of the maturation and mutation of the gentrification process during the post-recession era. We outline the conceptual cases for and against new-build `gentrification', then, using the case of London's riverside renaissance, we find in favour of the case for. ``In the last decade the designer apartment blocks built by corporate developers for elite consumption have become as characteristic of gentrified landscapes as streetscapes of lovingly restored Victorian terraces. As gentrification continues to progress and exhibit new forms and patterns, it seems unnecessary to confine the concept to residential rehabilitation.'' Shaw (2002, page 44) 1 Introduction Recent gentrification research has begun to highlight the challenges that current waves of gentrification pose towards its conceptualisation (Lees, 2003a; Slater, 2004). In the last decade gentrification has matured and its processes are operating in a new economic, cultural, social, and political environment.

Many of our family history resources were produced by the parish vestries and date from the 1600s to 1900. At that time the vast majority of this area was not part of London and you will find references to locations from Bankside to Camberwell as being in the County of Surrey. The three Metropolitan Boroughs of Southwark, Bermondsey and Camberwell were formed in 1900 and were part of the County of London. In 1965 these three boroughs merged to become the London Borough of Southwark, one of the 32 boroughs that now form Greater London.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Springer - Publisher Connector They’ve Got Their Wine Bars, We’ve Got Our Pubs’: Housing, Diversity and Community in Two South London Neighbourhoods Ole Jensen and Ben Gidley 1 The Making of Inner-City Diversity This chapter explores the constituents and dynamics of diversity, community and boundary-making in two South London neighbourhoods, Bermondsey and Camberwell. The analysis will in particular focus on how settlement patterns and residential geographies have been impacted by the nature of the housing stock and policies regulating access to social housing (Fig. 1 ). 1 Despite their relative proximity in the London Borough of Southwark, the two inner-city neighbourhoods of Bermondsey and Camberwell are characterized by signifi cant differences in terms of the built-up urban landscape and their place in the historical development of London. In Camberwell, class was built into the land- scape from the late eighteenth century when city merchants built Georgian houses in the southern part of Camberwell, located on a slope above the slums and smells of northern Camberwell. Bermondsey, on the other hand, was a much more homo- geneous, white working-class area, with livelihoods sustained by local employment 1 The empirical material presented in this chapter derives from fi eldwork carried out in Bermondsey and Camberwell from March 2011 to January 2012. In stage 1, a total of 20 key informant inter- views were carried out. Stage 2 consisted of 36 semi-structured interviews with local residents in six sites of inter-action, three in each neighbourhood.

  • Saint John the Evangelist Horsleydown, Bermondsey, London
    case study 37 Saint John the Evangelist Horsleydown, Bermondsey, London 1732 Parish church, demolished Architects: Nicholas Hawksmoor (1661–1736) and John James (1673–1746) See Queen’s College Chapel, Oxford (CS28) for more information on Nicholas Hawksmoor and St George Hanover Square (CS33) for John James. Historical note The parish of St John the Evangelist was formed out of the parish of St Olave Southwark. Like many other London suburban parishes, the population of Southwark had increased and that necessitated the creation of a new par- ish church. The project was adopted by the commission for building fifty new churches. A site on Horsleydown was acquired for a church and graveyard. The commissioners’ architects Nicholas Hawskmoor and John James were appointed. Their design was a plain classical building in Portland stone. The imposing west facade was pierced with three roundheaded windows and sur- mounted by a pediment. The square west tower is surmounted by a small bal- ustraded temple. The tower is further distinguished by its tall spire in form of an obelisk and the comet weather vane. The church consisted of a nave with apse. The aisles were formed by the columns supporting the galleries.1 The parish was officially created by Parliament in 1732 and the church was conse- crated in 1733 by William Richardson. 1 “The borough of Southwark: Churches,” in A History of the County of Surrey, ed.
