London Districts: Grove Park
This next episode travels over to the south east London district of 'Grove Park' to show you how it looks today and how it came to be today. London Districts puts the lesser known areas of London in the spotlight.
Transcription:
----------------------------------------
Grove Park is a quiet district taking its name from Grove Farm, an area of land which was located immediately opposite the front of Grove Park Library. The train station was the catalyst of the area's birth in the 1870s.
St Augustine's Church is a Church of England. Archbishop Desmond Tutu was a Grove Park resident and ministered here in the first half of the seventies.
Baring Road (formerly Bromley Road) is the spine of Grove Park from which everything branches off. The set-up of the GPCG or Grove Park Community Group there in 1972 is a big reason why the district still exists in its current form today.
Railway Children Walk is a 200-metre heritage trail commemorating the world famous 1906 children's novel 'The Railway Children' by E.Nesbit. The back of Edith Nesbit's house on Baring Road overlooked the railway line and is partially referenced by name in the story. Part of her old garden now forms the Grove Park Nature Reserve established in 1984.
The area was mostly woodland before they cut down and burned the trees for charcoal in the 18th century. This accounts for the section name Burnt Ash.
Brick maker and Victorian builder John Pound was born in Blackheath in 1827 was responsible for much of the late 19th century development of Grove Park including The Baring Hall Hotel & Pub previously threatened by demolition after a fire inside it in 2000.
Desmond Tutu lived in Chinbrook Road from 1972-
1975 before he was later elevated to the world stage during the 1980s as a South African activist and opponent of apartheid. Lewisham Council made him an Honorary Freeman of the Borough in 1990.
When an opera singer discovered Desmond Tutu used to live in her house, she invited him back in 2016 to create a peace garden in Chinbrook Meadows 150 yards away in honour of his work in peace and reconciliation.
Chinbrook Meadows was a dairy farm before it became a public park in 1937. It hosts the annual Grove Park Carnival & Chinbrook Dog Show.
Sixty years ago the River Quaggy here was channelized into ugly concrete culverts just to alleviate flooding. They pulled all of this up at the turn of the century to give it a more open and naturally meandering appearance with wooden bridges going across it; a lot more pleasant to attract wildlife and the public back to the area. Shortly afterwards, Chinbrook won the Green Flag Award for best UK park, two years in a row.

Places to see in ( Wendover - UK )
Places to see in ( Wendover - UK )
Wendover is a market town at the foot of the Chiltern Hills in Buckinghamshire, England. It is also a civil parish within Aylesbury Vale district. The mainly arable parish is 5,832 acres (2,360 ha) in size and contains many hamlets that nestle in amongst the lush forest on the surrounding hills. It lies between the picturesque villages of Ellesborough and Aston Clinton.
In 1086 the manor of Wendovre was in the hundred of Aylesbury, with William the Conqueror as its tenant in chief. The parish church of St Mary is outside the town to the east on the hillside: a feature that is very common among towns with strong Celtic origins. There is a distinctive red brick, spired clock tower at the crossroads in the centre of the town that was built in 1842. The tree lined Aylesbury Street includes the 16th-century timber framed Chiltern House and 18th-century Red House.
There is still a row of houses in the town today, known as Anne Boleyn's Cottages. The town is the birthplace of Gordon Onslow Ford, British surrealist artist, and it is believed to be the birthplace of the medieval chronicler Roger of Wendover. The town is also the birthplace of Cecilia Payne, the astronomer who first showed that the Sun is mainly composed of hydrogen.
The town is at the terminus of the Wendover Arm of the Grand Union Canal, which joins Tring summit level of the Grand Union main line beside Marsworth top lock. Disused for over a century, the arm is in course of being restored by the Wendover Arm Trust. Remote and rural for almost all its length, the canal attracts much local wildlife.
Today the town is very popular with commuters working in London. The popularity is due partly to the town's easy access to London by rail, partly to Wendover railway station, served by Chiltern Railways from London Marylebone via Amersham on the London to Aylesbury Line, and partly because it is so picturesque.
Facilities in the village centre include a Post Office Ltd, several hairdressers, a community library (run by volunteers), Whitewater's deli & cafe, Lloyds Pharmacy, and a charity shop. Wendover also plays host to the 'Coombe Hill Run' which usually occurs on the 1st Sunday of June every year. It begins and ends in the village and encompasses two very steep climbs up the Hill to the monument along with a very steep decline. Legend states that a boy from Wendover can only become a man once he has completed the course for the first time
By virtue of its geography, sitting in a gap in the Chiltern Hills and a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Wendover has much to offer both local people and visitors wishing to explore the local countryside. The frequent train service from London Marylebone makes it an ideal destination for a day trip to the country. The ancient Ridgeway National Trail, a highly popular 85-mile walking route that extends from Avebury to Ivinghoe, passes along Wendover High Street. Apart from the Ridgeway Trail there are 33 miles of public rights of way and bridleways criss-crossing the parish. These paths will take you over the open chalk downland of Coombe Hill, Buckinghamshire, home to Britains longest surviving geocache, with its elegant monument to the Buckinghamshire men who died in the Boer War, or walk to the pretty hamlet of Dunsmore in the spring and enjoy the carpet of bluebells, or enjoy the shaded woods on Haddington Hill and Boddington Hill, belonging to Forest Enterprise (known locally as 'Wendover Woods'). Mountain bikers make use of specially prepared cycle routes throughout the Woods, which also feature walking trails for walkers of various ability as well as barbecue sites and play areas for children. Close to Boddington hill there are the remains of an Iron Age hill fort.

Exploring the dilapidated ruins of civilisation, abandoned buildings, creepy theme parks, military bases, and underground vaults containing the remnants of a by gone era. And with a bit of comedy and humour chucked in there too, can't be too serious about these things.
We're not serious urban explorers, we just love the adventure.
Urban Exploration is not for kiddies. Abandoned places are dangerous. Adventures are fun.

Places to see in ( Brandon - UK )
Places to see in ( Brandon - UK )
Brandon is a small town and civil parish in the English county of Suffolk. It is in the Forest Heath local government district. Brandon is located in the Breckland area on the border of Suffolk with the adjoining county of Norfolk. Surrounded by Forestry Commission and agricultural land it is considered a rural town.
According to Eilert Ekwall (The Concise Oxford Dictionary of English Place Names) the likely origin of the name is Brandon, usually 'hill where broom grows', the earliest known spelling being in the 11th century when the town, gradually expanding up and along the rising ground of the river valley, was called Bromdun.
From prehistoric times the area was mined for flint as can be seen at Grimes Graves, a popular Brandon tourist destination. Much more recently, the town was a major centre for the production of gunflints. The Domesday Book records that the manor of Brandon in 1086 had 25 households. In medieval times and beyond Brandon was renowned for its rabbit fur.
The town's current population is recorded as 9,636 people in the 2011 UK Census. Brandon has three schools; two primary, Forest Academy and Glade Primary School; and one High School, IES Breckland. Brandon's population has steadily increased since the Second World War due to immigration. After the war there was an influx of servicemen from Poland who settled in the town and also in nearby Weeting, Norfolk. The Cold War saw many American service people and their families billeted in and around the town. The Greater London Council oversaw the building of a large Council estate off Thetford Road and Bury Road in the 1970s and many London families were relocated to Brandon during that time.
Brandon is situated on the A1065 Mildenhall to Fakenham road. It often suffers severe congestion due to large amounts of commuter traffic, holiday traffic travelling to the Norfolk Coast and HGVs. Several bus routes and National Express coach services pass through the town as well. Brandon railway station has an hourly service to Cambridge and Ely to the West and to Thetford and Norwich in the East.
Regular bus services operate from Brandon to the neighbouring towns of Bury St. Edmunds, Mildenhall and Thetford. There are also infrequent services (at school and shopping times) to Downham Market, King's Lynn and Norwich. Flowing in an easterly direction the Little Ouse river is navigable through the town.
