Produktbeschreibung
Hither Green is an area of London, United Kingdom, with a population of around 10,000. It is a predominantly Victorian suburban development forming part of the London Borough of Lewisham 6.6 miles south east of Charing Cross, to which it is linked directly by rail, and located on the Prime Meridian south of Greenwich. From 1978 to 1998 Hither Green gave its name to the electoral ward that covered the local area; the wards and boundaries were re-evaluated for the 2002 elections, and the larger ward covering most of the former ward's area is named Lewisham Central. Hither Green is a classic London suburb which grew with the expansion of the railways in the 19th century. The area is characterised by late 19th and early 20th century Victorian and Edwardian domestic architecture, most notably the Corbett Estate, built by Scottish MP and social reformer Archibald Corbett, 1st Baron Rowallan. The railway runs through the centre of the area, with Staplehurst Road and its shopping parade to the east, and Hither Green Lane to the west. The lane dates back to Roman times and runs between the Quaggy and Ravensbourne rivers.
