For this, the third book in a series on the area of Walworth, we let the people, old and new, speak first-hand about SE17. A few of those you will hear from have long since left Walworth physically, but it is a place they still hold dear to their hearts. Authors Mark Baxter and Darren Lock have collated quotes and, along with the use of social media, have managed to find many who have a tale to tell. Funny, sad, reflective, joyous - many moods are captured in these photographs, many of which have never been printed before. Walworth's strong sense of community is evident in the rich memories recounted in this volume. We hope the following pages also bring back memories for some of you as you read it. SE17 Forever!
Described by the Anglo-Saxons as the 'Farm of Briton', the architecture of the Walworth now ranges from impressive eighteenth-century houses to more recent concrete tower blocks. Today, the area is built-up, urban and dotted with housing estates, markets, shops and pubs; little is left of the green space that used to exist here. From Boundary Lane to Old Kent Road and beyond, Walworth History Tour takes a journey through this district, where you will discover the past of this ever-changing part of the capital.
