My 2nd Great Grandfather George Lowe was born there in 1834. In 1853 he worked for the Queen at Buckingham Palace in the Royal Mews. George lived at Onslow Square in 1851 census.
Thank you for the video guys. I grew up in the area during the 70s and brought back a lot of memories. I last visited around 8 years ago and where I lived on dolland street had all been knocked down and the rising sun pub seemed long gone. I went to Alford house youth club as a kid , my dad knew mick Saunders who owned and ran it. My dad ran the snooker tables in the basement. I went to st marks school opposite the oval. I wonder how many people from that era still live there
How I came to miss this film I don't know, I'm very familiar with the area. You mention '15 stories high', a comedy I'd never heard of. Luckily it was on RUclips. Three episodes in and I'm hooked, original and very well acted. A good watch that I'm extremely glad to have discovered.
Love the video. Brought up down Kennington lane in the 60s. Use the library loads as a kid. Windmill row had a pet shop on the corner with a talking macaw, that was massive entertainment back then LOL
My maternal Great-Great-Grandfather and Great-Grandfather, father and son artists and lithographers were from Lambeth (Henry Heath Glover Snr & Henry Heath Glover Jnr). They migrated to Adelaide in South Australia in 1849. Thank you for taking me for a walk along streets they would have known. I couldn't help wondering if they'd ever shared a pint together in the White Bear or the Black Prince. Fascinating and, for me personally, poignant.
Cheers for that. Captain Blighs house (blue Plaque) is right opposite the Imperial Was museum, just in front of those guns. The famous cry from his wife: 'Where the hell have you been?'
just south of the imperial war gardens is West Square with a myriad of alleys leading off to adjoining streets (a favourite escape route for E&C thieves).. the park itself also contains trees that are propped up dali-esque that are older than the european discovery of australia!
Excellent snapshot of Kennington John. I grew up in Kennington and spent early married life there before moving away 1986. Very familiar with the walk you made. Played football many times in Kennington Park as a young lad on the grass and ash pitch around by the Lido. The Band stand scene from Ipcress file with Michael Caine and Nigel Green was filmed in the park. Above the Library in Maddock way, Brandon estate ,was a club that organised coach trips for the kids to Canvey Island. The place is run down now. However, Check out the clip ‘Canvey for the cup 1974’ on RUclips. There are a few trips to canvey. These films will give you the flavour of Brandon in 70s
I lived around the corner from the Oval in the late 90s. Also lived in Lower Clapton in the late 80s (on the 17th floor of the only remaining block of flats on Hackney Marshes) - then moved to a house just off Chatsworth Road. Then moved to Herne Hill, which I loved. Now I’m in the USA - watching your videos makes me SO nostalgic.
Thank you for posting this, brought back wonderful memories for me!, I lived in the road opposite the SHIP pub (Walnut Tree Walk which led to the famous Lambeth Walk), The TANKARD pub was where me and my friends drank in our late teens and Bedlam park was where we played football etc. when we were younger, great place to live, made friends for life after being raised together there and going to school together at Walnut Tree Walk primary school. Wonderful stuff, thanks again :)
I was born in Lambeth hospital in the 60’s and grew up in the flats opposite the Oval cricket ground, used to walk past the gas works and Cricketers Arms on my way to school. Not been back there in 40 years
The Tescos by the Black prince pub was A Granada bingo hall , before that it was a cinema known locally as the ranch because of all the cowboy movies it ran. There was a blue plaque on it for Charlie Chaplin, saying his house was bombed, ww2.
I spent a really great chapter of my life knocking about those streets of Kennington so I enjoyed watching a really great walk around them, thanks as always for your awesome work John!
I remember the White Bear, I saw some great drag acts in there many years ago. I had a roller skate and skateboard shop in the basement of Rainbow Foods on Clapham High Street. That must have been around 1980ish! Blimey. I watched your London Perambulator film a week or so ago and have been watching your stuff since, I can't watch the garbage on main stream TV stations and found a whole load of good things to see on youtube, nice work young man.
I enjoyed watching this video. The only this I can add to the history of this area, I.was around 15/16 helping to install the original lights in the Elephant and Castle shopping Center signs.
Thank you for giving me and my family a little tour of where i grew up! I was born there in the early 90's. Moved away in the late 2000! But a good little insight into Kennington. Good vid man.
Northerner moving to London soon and looking for areas to move to close to my new job. Kennington is the front runner at the moment! Thanks for the informative video! It's been very hard to find anything similar!
@bob So. I'm from America. Didn't know what this was about, i do now, hilarious! Sheesh. Ppl love to be hood, everywhere! When i think of London, i don't think of this. It seems like it's an American thing to be "gangster". You know? Lol. Should i dash my dreams of a posh London life? 😂😂
Great video again! Not an area I know well although my brother lived in Crampton Street for about a year back in the mid 70's. I was reminded by the houses in Denny Street of the Dutch Quarter in Potsdam not so far from me here in Berlin. Check out Mittelstrasse and you can see the similarities. Perhaps Denny Street has a Dutch connection.
It's definitely worth looking into Douglas - thanks for pointing that out, there are a few other similar houses around London in this Dutch style (in Clerkenwell and Hackney for example) - so I wonder if it was a fashion at a particular time
Hello John, love your videos. Born and bred in London, now moved to Essex, lived in Walthamstow, Ilford so as you can probably understand I am kind of linked to a lot of your walks. I drove a black cab for forty years and I was hooked on your shepherds bush walk. I used to drive for radio taxis and on the north side of shepherds bush green there was a taxi rank. We used to do loads of BBC work which was all despatched from that rank, TV centre, Lime Grove etc. Bye the way love you new camera makes a big difference to the quality of your vids. Must go now, by the way if you take the c2c to Grays it would make interesting video. There's lots of history down here, old chalk quarrys and a nice thames walk. Thanks and keep walking.
Many thanks for your comment - I shared the your memory with some colleagues who worked at Lime Grove. Good suggestion for Grays - I've heard about the chalk pits, will have to check it out. Thanks
Dear John, The Ship on Kennington Rd was once used in a film called Melody 1971, a lightweight teenage romantic comedy starring Roy Kinnear, from a screenplay by Alan Parker and has a fine Bee Gees soundtrack. Kinnear can be seen coming out of the front door of the pub to give his daughter some loose change, in the clip on youtube entitled 'The Bee Gees - Melody Fair [Original Footage FIlm Melody 1971]' I always think of Roy Kinnear when I got to The Ship after finding that out. Type in 'Melody (1971) - In The Morning' and you'll see in the opening shot the camera pans down into Kennington Cross.
I watched it when it was on youtube for a while. It's ok for a few chuckles and nostalgia nuggets. It bombed at the time over here, but was big in Japan. I think the producers were trying to cash in on the recent success of Jack Wild and Mark Lester.
Melody is powerful nostalgia for me. Saw it as a 12 year old in 1974 one hot summer day in Western Australia. Always remembered some scenes, but for 30 years or more I didn't know what the film actually was. Now it's my ambition, before I get too old, to go and retrace Melody's steps, including the Ship hotel and the horse trough opposite the War Museum. Hopefully the whole area doesn't change too much before travel restrictions ease. So much history in that area, not just the filming locations.
Great to watch this six years later ! Glimpse of my great grand uncle's plaque A.J.Avery dated 1897 on the side of The Tommyfield ( then known as The Crown, i think) a pub he developed and managed.
Altho I’d seen photos of the pub and relatives 19th C homes in Kennington Road and Walnut Tree lane thanks to your walk I now know how they all joined together ! Really illuminating thank you 🙏
Hi John very much enjoying your videos. Any chance you might have done a walk in the Roehampton area specifically in the Danebury Ave vicinity? This area was featured early on in the 1966 Truffaut film Fahrenheit 451 in part I believe due to it's futuristic architecture. regards, Steev
No I haven't Steve - it was on the long list of places to include in my book, This Other London, but I ran out of room. My sister made a film there about 20 years ago and I've been fascinated ever since but not been. The Truffaut link is great - many thanks for the tip
John, you are inspirational! I am exploring London through your walks. My Dad was a Postie in London in the fifties and I so enjoy your shared walks as I live in Northern Ireland. A gem. Grace
Good to see the briefest glimpse of Perronet House near Elephant and Castle, a really remarkable bit of social housing by Sir Roger Walters designed to give residents a decent home with good views and facilities despite high densities. Also nice to see you straying into the home territory of William Kent, author of lots of London guidebooks in the 1930s and 40s! One day I'll finally finish writing about his life, which starts in Lambeth, evolves through stage in a Kennington religious commune and ends with a long stint at the LCC.
An interesting film, although you might be surprised to hear that the building you thought was a post war rebuild (6:25) in fact dates from around 1913, and is contemporaneous with the Duchy of Cornwall development on the opposite side of the road
Great video, I loved it!!! My wife & I are traveling to London for the first time this coming September and we are going to spend a few hours in Kennington mainly because I want to visit the corner where Dexy's Midnight Runners filmed the video for "Come On Eileen" back in the 80s. After watching this video, I wanna hang out in this area for a bit. It looks AMAZING!!!!
also most of death wish 4. Charles Bronson, was filmed in the old Lambeth Hospital. On Brook Drive. Some scenes done in Underground garages in the flats Opposite Kennington Tube.
In your 3rs video.. Charlie chaplins house is on Methley Street. Which was indeed Industrial... I have forgotten and will have to check his autobiography but believe it was a jam factory or something opposite his house then. And he loves in various addresses IN Kennington as a child as most people did because of having to do 'moonlight flits' when unable to pay the rent. He also spent time in the workhouse there too 😪

Hi Steve - wow good question. My favourite fish and chip shop is a bit out of the way, my local in Hainault Road Leytonstone. But if you're looking for something more central Golden Fish Bar on Farringdon Road was always one of my favourites. Pie shop - I have to say Manze's in Chapel Market - go now before it closes. The chippy in Chapel Market is also good, and while you're there look in on Indian Veg and Alpino. Hope you have a great time in London
Well that's coming very soon - in reality it'll be a series on SE1, but my River Neckinger walk passes through Southwark ruclips.net/video/AgkQC-7lbQw/видео.html You might also find this video I shot around Bermondsey of interest - there's a good section on the history of the area with a local historian ruclips.net/video/dPrsDCU2qUc/видео.html
