About this ebook

East Dulwich Remembered covers many historical aspects of this well preserved Victorian suburb in South London. Long established residents and affl uent new ones will learn much about this fascinating part of London's most historic borough. Sheep no longer graze on Goose Green but old pictures illustrate how SE22 has changed. People's memories of pre-war homes, schools, shops, trams and life during the Second World War are included. Peckham Rye Park, created where Homestall Farm used to be, is the jewel in the East Dulwich crown. Old photographs show why the park has been popular for over a century. Illustrated with over 100 pictures, this collection is an important record of times past. For people who grew up in the area, the book provides a nostalgic stroll down memory lane. Newer residents will learn more about the community's fascinating history.
