Local Information for Thamesmead

Close

Thamesmead is a newly built town on the south side of the river Thames. It is located in the boroughs of Bexley and Greenwich. Thamesmead was built on land that extended over ‘Plumstead’ and ‘Erith Marshes’ and was designed to help cope with the overflow of population from the City of London. The first residents moved into the new riverside town in the late 1960’s.

Although the town itself is very new, there is evidence that humans were active in the area as early as in the Bronze Age. Monks from the nearby Lesnes Abbey were the first people to reclaim the marshland back in the 13th century. They used the land for cultivating crops and rearing animals.

Stanley Kubrick used the southern part of town for location shots for the 1971 film The Clockwork Orange.

Local Information for Weybridge

Close

Situated in South East England, in the Elmbridge district of Surrey, Weybridge is bordered at the North by the River Thames at the mouth of the River Wey.

Weybridge takes its name from the River Wey and was at one time simply a river crossing. It was mentioned in 1086 in the Domesday Book and was noted as being worth £4. In 1537, Henry VIII built Oatlands Palace, when it was demolished in 1650, the bricks were used to build the Wey Navigation canal. The Oatlands Park Hotel now occupies the original site of the Palace.

The town opened their station on the London and Southampton railway in 1838, which began the development of what was originally a small village. As affluent businessmen arrived from the city, large houses began popping up and the area grew into a thriving town. The Veterinary Laboratories Agency, part of DEFRA, has offices in Weybridge and is one of the main testing sites for the Bird Flu virus.

Weybridge has a number of monuments, including one of the Duchess of York which was erected in 1820, as well as a World War One memorial. The town is also home to the UK head offices of Toshiba, Sony and Procter and Gamble.

Weybridge is an important area which has many rare species of insects, birds and plants, although it was left to become overgrown, the Surrey Wildlife Trust recently began a scheme to clear the area.

Local Information for Homerton

Close

Homerton is located in the London Borough of Hackney and although the first recorded evidence of Hackney was in 1314 evidence has been found to suggest it was inhabited as early as the 11th or 12th century. The name Homerton is said to derive from ‘the farm of a woman named ‘Hunburh’‘. In medieval times, Homerton was a market garden and farm area for London, much the same as Hackney. Activities that were deemed unsuitable for the city were carried out here.

In 1880 Homerton saw many institutions being built, due mainly to the tolerance of dissenters, the large quantities of land, and large houses. In 1768, the Kings Head Society moved here and started up Homerton College. The college provided education for Calvinist ministers. Students from the college were instrumental in forming the Glynn Cricket Club, and Clapton Oriental, which went on to become Leyton Orient F.C. The college buildings were damaged beyond repair in WWII bombings.

In 1868 Homerton Rail Station opened, and in 1870, a large hospital was built to deal with the cases of fever, plague and other contagious diseases affecting the village. These two new developments succeeded in driving away the wealthier residents of Homerton.
