Blockhouse Street
I grew up at 89 Blockhouse Street with my parents, sister, grandparents & aunt. We had enough rooms but there was no bathroom, we had to go to the public bath every Friday evening (more hot in number 5 please) & the toilet was outside. There was an endless stream of family coming & going & I remember it as a very happy time. I attended Ilderton Road Primary school & then Collingwood School for girls in Leo street behind the Regal cinema. We were all re-housed in 1966 for re-development. I am always grateful for the happy childhood that I had growing up in this area.

It consists of small Victorian houses that were infilled a garden of a Rye Lane house in the c 1870s. It is now a car-free cul-de-sac off of Choumert Grove and was built as a row of one-bedroom cottages without back gardens. Each cottage has a small front garden which are generally well-tended. While called a ’square’, it is more of a lane which has a community of residents which opens itself for a summer Open Day once every year.

Peckham Rye station began operating in 1865, with an open square in front. It was designed by the noted Victorian architect Charles Henry Driver, who also designed some of London’s great pumping stations. It is unknown whether Driver was also a fan of billiards - opportunities to play on the green baize seem to dominate the station whether by design or accident. The image features a huge group of men. It’s also unknown if they are the station’s many billiards players gathered for a group photo. TUM image id: 1707500912 Licence:
