Once an old nineteenth railway suburb of London, much of Wallington is Victorian in character immediately surrounding its station, which lies just off the main high street. Regular train services serve both London Bridge and Victoria ensuring that the town is always in demand with commuters. Grand Victorian houses now converted to flats can be found in the roads to the north of the railway station whilst the south of Wallington now contains the smarter properties.
Walthamstow - London E17
Diverse multi-cultural area. Mixed housing stock with some gentrification.
Lively market and choice of restaurants and clubs. Good access
to City and West End
Walworth - London SE17
There is an interesting mix of housing in SE17. Unexplained survivals
from Georgian times meet partial Victorian terraces and in their
view are low and high rise flats If there is a half to the postcode
which came best out of post war reconstruction, it is the western
half, between Walworth Road and Kennington Park Road. The northern
edge of this half, hard by the Elephant, is the relatively successful
Newington Estate, nearly all houses in short terraces facing in
all sorts of directions with generous amounts of open land. The
southern edge are the depressing Brandon and Wyndham Estates,
the former in particular a wasteland. In between are a conglomerate
of Victorian terraces and modern houses, some in short streets
and some in squares. Kennington Park has kept hold of some Victorian
terraces and mansion blocks from the Edwardian era and the Fifties
complete the parkside picture. Between Walworth Road and Old Kent
Road we have the Sixties/Seventies brutalist paradises of the
Heygate Estate by the Elephant and the Aylesbury Estate by Burgess
Park. The Aylesbury has been saved from full scale demolition
but much of it will still go. In between these are a warren of
streets with East Street Market at its core. There are many partial
Victorian survivals amongst the impromptu car parks and unused
bomb-damage ground, often in dark red brick. There are even a
few Georgian leftovers in Surrey Square and Bartholomew Street.
New life is flickering here in the conversion of a school, a pub,
some new housing and the rebuild of 68 Victorian terraces with
all mod cons.
