Fulham Palace
Fulham Palace - the Manor of Fulham[edit]
Chertsey Breviary - St. Erkenwald
Sands End
Sands End Gasworks in 2006
Fulham, or in its earliest form "Fulanhamme", is thought to have
signified the place either "place of fowls" or "of mud" (which
probably had to do with the fact that the
River Thames
River Thames would flood it
periodically), or alternatively, "land in the crook of a river bend
belonging to an Anglo Saxon chief named Fulla". The manor of
Fulham
Fulham is
said to have been given to Bishop
Erkenwald
Erkenwald about the year 691 for
himself and his successors in the See of London. In effect, Fulham
Palace, for nine centuries the summer residence of the Bishops of
London, is the manor of Fulham.[14] In 879 Danish invaders, sailed up
the
Thames
Thames and wintered at
Fulham
Fulham and Hammersmith. Raphael Holinshed
relates that the
Bishop of London
Bishop of London was lodging in his manor place in
1141 when Geoffrey de Mandeville, riding out from the Tower of London,
took him prisoner. During the Commonwealth the manor was temporarily
out of the bishops' hands, having been sold to Colonel Edmund Harvey.
In recent years there has been a great revival of interest in Fulham's
earliest history, due almost entirely to the efforts of the Fulham
Archaeological Rescue Group. This has carried out a number of
interesting digs, particularly in the vicinity of
Fulham
Fulham Palace, which
show that approximately 5,000 years ago
Neolithic
Neolithic people were living
by the riverside and in other parts of the area. Excavations have also
revealed Roman settlements during the third and fourth centuries AD.
Fulham
Fulham parish[edit]
There is no record of the original erection of a
Parish church
Parish church in
Fulham, but the first written record of a church dates from 1154 as a
result of a tithe dispute. The first known parish priest of All Saints
Church,
Fulham
Fulham was appointed in 1242. The medieval extant part of All
Saints Church was demolished in 1881, during reconstruction by Sir
Arthur Blomfield, in order to enlarge it, however, it did not date
farther back than the 15th century.[15] Interestingly, there is a
comparably old church on the opposite bank of the Thames, St Mary's
Church, Putney, on the other side of the river crossing.
In 1642 the Earl of Essex threw a bridge of boats across the river in
order to march his army in pursuit of Charles I, who thereupon fell
back on Oxford. This is thought to have been near the subsequent
wooden
Fulham
Fulham Bridge, built in 1729 and replaced in 1886 with Putney
Bridge. Margravine Road recalls the existence of Brandenburg House, a
riverside mansion built by Sir Nicholas Crispe in the time of Charles
I, and used as the headquarters of
General Fairfax
General Fairfax in 1647 during the
civil wars. In 1792 it was occupied by Charles Alexander, Margrave of
Brandenburg-Ansbach and his wife, and in 1820 by Caroline, consort of
George IV. His non-political 'wife' was
Maria Fitzherbert
Maria Fitzherbert who lived in
East End House in Parson's Green. They are reputed to have had several
children.[16]
Charles Brandenburg (1736-1808), owner of 'Brandenburg' House (demolished)
During the 18th century
Fulham
Fulham had a reputation for debauchery,
becoming a playground for the wealthy of London, where there was much
gambling and prostitution and breweries.[citation needed]
Until 1834, the neighbouring village of
Hammersmith
Hammersmith had been
incorporated in the parish of Fulham.[17] However, due to population
expansion, it was decided to create separate parishes for the purposes
of administration. They did not come together again until
1965.[citation needed]
19th century transport and power plays[edit]
Charles Booth 1889 map - detail showing Lillie Bridge, the two railway lines and Brompton Cemetery
The 19th century roused
Walham Green
Walham Green village, and the surrounding
hamlets that made up the parish of Fulham, from their rural slumber
and market gardens with the advent first of power production and then
more hesitant transport development.[18] This was accompanied by
accelerating urbanisation, as in other centres in the county of
Middlesex, which encouraged trade skills among the growing population.
In 1824 the Imperial Gas Light and Coke Company, the first public
utility company in the world, bought the Sandford estate in Sands End
to produce gas for lighting - and in the case of the Hurlingham Club,
for ballooning.[19] Its ornately decorated number 2 gasholder is
Georgian, completed in 1830 and reputed to be the oldest gasholder in
the World.[20] In connection with gas property portfolios, in 1843 the
newly formed
Westminster
Westminster Cemetery Company had trouble persuading the
Equitable gas people (a future Imperial take-over) to sell them a
small portion of land to gain southern access, onto the
Fulham
Fulham Road,
from their recently laid out Brompton Cemetery, over the parish border
in Chelsea. The sale was finally achieved through the intervention of
cemetery shareholder and
Fulham
Fulham resident, John Gunter.[21][22]
Kensington Canal
Kensington Canal and
Brompton Cemetery
Brompton Cemetery by William Cowen, with Stamford
Bridge in the distance. c. 1860
Meanwhile, another group of local landowners, led by Lord Kensington
with
Sir John Scott Lillie
Sir John Scott Lillie and others had conceived, in 1822, the idea
of exploiting the water course up-river from Chelsea Creek on their
land by turning it into a two-mile canal. It was to have a basin, a
lock and wharves, to be known as the Kensington Canal, and link the
Grand Union Canal
Grand Union Canal with the Thames. In reality, however, the project
was over budget and delayed by contractor bankruptcies and only opened
in 1828, when railways were already gaining traction.[23] The
short-lived canal concept did however leave a legacy: the creation on
Lillie's land of a brewery and residential development, 'Rosa' - and
'Hermitage Cottages', and several roads, notably, the Lillie Road
connecting the canal bridge, (Lillie Bridge) at
West Brompton
West Brompton with
North End Lane and the eventual creation of two railway lines, the
West
London
London Line and the
District line
District line connecting South
London
London with
the rest of the capital. This was done with the input of two noted
consulting engineers,
Robert Stephenson
Robert Stephenson in 1840 and from 1860, Sir
John Fowler.[23]
Empress Hall with
Lillie Bridge
Lillie Bridge Depot, Fulham, before Earl's Court
Exhibition was built on the right, 1928-source: Britain from Above.
It meant that the area around
Lillie Bridge
Lillie Bridge was to make a lasting, if
largely unsung, contribution for well over a century to the
development and maintenance of public transport in
London
London and beyond.
Next to the
Lillie Bridge
Lillie Bridge engineering Depot, the Midland Railway
established its own coal and goods yard.[citation needed]
In !907 the engineering HQ of the Piccadilly Line in Richmond
Place (16-18 Empress Place) oversaw the westward expansion of the line
into the suburbs. At the turn of the century, the
London
London Omnibus Co.
in Seagrave Road oversaw the transition of horse-drawn to motor buses,
which were eventually integrated into
London
London Transport and London
Buses. This attracted a host of other automotive enterprises to move
into the area.[citation needed]
With the growth of 19th-century transport links into East
Fulham
Fulham and
its sporting venues by 'Lillie Bridge', along with the immediately
neighbouring 24-acre
Earl's Court
Earl's Court exhibition grounds, and the vast the
Empress Hall (see entertainment section below). During the First World
War it would become accommodation for Belgian refugees. Meanwhile, the
historic hamlet of North End was massively redeveloped in the 1880s by
Messrs Gibbs & Flew, who built 1,200 houses on the fields. They
had trouble disposing of the properties, so for public relations
purposes, they renamed the area 'West Kensington', to refer to the
more prosperous neighbourhood over the parish boundary.[24]
The last farm to function in
Fulham
Fulham was Crabtree Farm, which closed at
the beginning of the 20th-century. A principal recorder of all these
changes was a local man, Charles James Féret (1854-1921), who
conducted research over a period of decades before publishing his
three volume history of
Fulham
Fulham in 1900.[25][26]

Art and Craft[edit]
Ceramics
Ceramics and weaving in
Fulham
Fulham go back to at least the 17th century,
most notably with the
Fulham
Fulham Pottery, followed by the establishment of
tapestry and carpet production with a branch of the French 'Gobelins
manufactory' and then the short-lived Parisot weaving school venture
in the 1750s. William De Morgan, ceramicist and novelist, moved into
Sands End
Sands End with his painter wife, Evelyn De Morgan, where they lived
and worked. Another artist couple, also members of the Arts and Crafts
movement, lived at 'the Grange' in North End, Georgiana Burne-Jones
and her husband, Edward Burne-Jones, both couples were friends of
William Morris.
Other artists who settled along the Lillie Road, were Francesco
Bartolozzi, a florentine engraver and Benjamin Rawlinson Faulkner, a
society portrait painter. Henri Gaudier-Brzeska, the French
expressionist painter and friend of Ezra Pound, lived in Walham Green
till his early death in 1915. Glass production was, until recently,
represented by the stained glass studio of the purpose-built and Grade
II listed Glass House in Lettice Street and latterly, by the Aaronson
Noon Studio, with the 'Zest' Gallery in Rickett Street, that was
obliged to shut down in 2012, after 20 years by the developers of
'Lillie Square' and Earl's Court. Both glass businesses have now moved
out of London.[27][28][29]
The Art Bronze Foundry, founded by Charles Gaskin in 1922 still
operates in Michael Road, off the New King's Road, a short distance
from Eel Brook Common. It has produced works by Henry Moore, Elisabeth
Frink,
Barbara Hepworth
Barbara Hepworth and
Jacob Epstein
Jacob Epstein among others. Its work may
be seen in public spaces all over the world.[30]
20th century[edit]

Fulham
Fulham
Fulham remained a predominantly working class area for the first half
of the 20th century, with genteel pockets at North End, along the top
of Lillie and New King's roads, especially around Parsons Green, Eel
Brook Common, South Park and the area surrounding the Hurlingham Club.
Essentially, the area had attracted waves of immigrants from the
countryside to service industrialisation and the more privileged parts
of the capital. With rapid demographic changes there was poverty, as
had been noted by
Charles Dickens
Charles Dickens and Charles Booth and
Fulham
Fulham had its
Poorhouses, and attracted several benefactors, including: the Samuel
Lewis (financier) Housing Trust, the
Peabody Trust
Peabody Trust and Sir Oswald
Stoll Foundation to provide low-cost housing.[31]
The
Metropolitan Asylums Board acquired in 1876 a 13-acre site at the
bottom of Seagrave Road, to build a fever hospital, The Western
Hospital, that later became an NHS centre of excellence for treating
polio until its closure in 1979.[32] Bar one ward block remaining in
private occupation, it was replaced by a gated flats development and a
small public space, Brompton Park.[33]
Aside from the centuries-old brewing industry, e.g. The Swan Brewery
on the Thames,[34] the main activities were motor and early aviation-
Rolls Royce, Shell-Mex, Rover, the
London
London Omnibus Co. - and rail
engineering (
Lillie Bridge
Lillie Bridge Depot), laundries - the Palace Laundry is
still extant - and the building trades.[35] Later there was
distilling, Sir Robert Burnett's White Satin Gin,[36] food processing,
e.g. Telfer's Pies, Encafood and
Spaghetti House
Spaghetti House and Kodak's
photographic processing. This encouraged the southern stretch of North
End Road to become Fulham's unofficial 'High street', almost a mile
from the actual
Fulham
Fulham High Street, with its own department store,
F.H. Barbers, along with Woolworth's, Marks & Spencer and
Sainsbury's
Sainsbury's outlets, all long gone. The second ever Tesco shop opened
in the North End Road. The UK's reputedly oldest independent health
food shop, opened in 1966 by the Aetherius Society, still trades in
the
Fulham
Fulham Road.
Allied to these developments, the post-war period saw the extensive
demolition of Fulham's early 19th century architectural stock,
replaced by some
Brutalist architecture
Brutalist architecture - the current Ibis hotel - and
the
Empress State Building
Empress State Building in
Lillie Road
Lillie Road that in 1962 replaced the
declining Empress Hall. The LCC and local council continued with much
needed council housing development between the
Second World War
Second World War and up
to the 1980s.
Piece of aviation history[edit]

Geoffrey de Havilland, aviation pioneer, built his first aeroplane at
his workshop in Bothwell Street,
Fulham
Fulham in 1909.[37] Later, during the
First World War, Cannon's Brewery site at the corner of Lillie and
North End Road
North End Road was used for aircraft manufacture.[38] The Darracq
Motor Engineering Company of Townmead Road, became aircraft
manufacturers in
Fulham
Fulham for the
Airco
Airco company, producing De Havilland
designs and components for the duration of the war.
Musical heritage[edit]
Goossens Family plaque on no. 70 Edith Road, W14.
William Crathern, the composer, was organist at St Mary's Church, West
Kensington, when it was still known as North End. Edward Elgar, the
composer, lived at 51 Avonmore Road, W14, between 1890–1891.[39]
Eugène Goossens and his wife Annie Cook, a Carl Rosa Opera Company
singer settled in
Fulham
Fulham with their family. They were part of a
musical dynasty of Belgian descent. Their eldest son was the conductor
and composer Sir
Eugene Aynsley Goossens
Eugene Aynsley Goossens next was Léon Jean Goossens
(1897-1988), a British oboist, their daughters were the harpists,
Marie and Sidonie Goossens. The family lived at 70, Edith Road, off
the North End Road.

With the accession of
Boris Johnson
Boris Johnson to the mayoralty of London, a

Chelsea, involving the dismantling of the two
Earl's Court

Fulham and the emptying and
demolition of hundreds of commercial properties, thousands of both
private and social housing units and including the demolition of a
rare example in
Fulham
Fulham of mid-Victorian housing, designed by John
Young (architect), close to Grade I and II listed structures and to a
number of conservation areas in both boroughs. It also involves the
closure of the historic
Lillie Bridge
Lillie Bridge Depot, opened in 1872 and the
dispersal of its operations by TfL[41][42]
Namesake[edit]
The latest edition (2008) of the
Chambers Dictionary defines a fulham
as 'a die loaded at the corner to ensure that certain numbers are
thrown (also full'am or full'an). Prob the place name 'Fulham' in
London.' The
OED
OED distinguishes between a high fulham which was loaded
so as to ensure a cast of 4, 5, or 6; and a low fulham, so as to
ensure a cast of 1, 2, or 3). It also cites Arthur Conan Doyle's usage
in 1889 in
Micah Clarke
Micah Clarke xxx. 316 "There is no loading of the dice, or
throwing of fulhams."[citation needed]

Fulham was formerly a part
of the
Hammersmith
Hammersmith and
Fulham
Fulham parliamentary constituency which was
dissolved in 2010 to form the current seats. However, parts of Fulham
continue to score highly on the Jarman Index, indicating poor health
outcomes due to adverse socio-economic factors.[citation needed]
Fulham
Fulham has in the past been solid Labour territory. Michael Stewart,
one time Foreign Secretary in the Wilson government, was its
long-standing MP. It became a politically significant part of the
country, having been the scene of two major parliamentary by-elections
in the 20th century. In 1933, the
Fulham
Fulham East by-election became known
as the "peace by-election". The 1986 by-election following the death
of Conservative MP, Martin Stevens, resulted in a Labour win for Nick
Raynsford on a 10% swing.[citation needed]
With "gentrification",
Fulham
Fulham voters have been leaning towards the
Conservatives since the 1980s as the area underwent huge demographic
change: the tightly-packed terraces which had housed working-class
families employed in trade, engineering and the industry that
dominated Fulham's riverside being gradually replaced with young
professionals.[citation needed]
In the 2005 General Election,
Greg Hands
Greg Hands won the
Hammersmith
Hammersmith and
Fulham
Fulham Parliamentary seat for the Conservatives, polling 45.4% against
Labour's 35.2%, a 7.3% swing. In the 2010 General Election, he was
re-elected this time for the newly formed Chelsea and Fulham
constituency. In the 2015 General Election he was returned with an
increased share of the vote.[citation needed]

Fulham is currently controlled by Labour. At the 2014
local elections, Labour won 11 seats from the Conservatives, giving

then Prime Minister David Cameron's "favourite"[43]) for the first
time since 2006.

Entertainment[edit]
The most considerable entertainment (and sports) destinations in
Fulham, after the
Lillie Bridge Grounds
Lillie Bridge Grounds closed in 1888, have been the
6,000-seater Empress Hall,[47] built in 1894 at the instigation of
international impresario,
Imre Kiralfy
Imre Kiralfy - the scene of his spectacular
shows and later sporting events and famous ice shows - and latterly,
Earl's Court
Earl's Court II, part of the
Earl's Court
Earl's Court Exhibition Centre in the
neighbouring, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.[48] The first
closed in 1959, replaced by an office block, the Empress State
Building. The second, opened by Princess Diana, lasted just over 20
years until 2014. Along with the architecturally pleasing
Mid-Victorian Empress Place, formerly access to the exhibition centre,
it is destined for high rise re-development, but with usage as yet to
be confirmed.[49][50]
No trace is left today of either of Fulham's two theatres, both opened
in 1897. The 'Grand Theatre' was on the approach to
Putney
Putney Bridge and
was designed by the prolific WGR Sprague, author of venues such as
Wyndham's Theatre
Wyndham's Theatre and the
Aldwych Theatre
Aldwych Theatre in London's West End. It
gave way to office blocks in the late 1950s. The 'Granville Theatre',
founded by Dan Leno, to the design of Frank Matcham, once graced a
triangle of land at Walham Green.[51] After the
Music hall
Music hall era had
passed, It served as a film and television studio, but was finally
demolished in 1971. It too has been replaced by an office block in
Fulham
Fulham Broadway.[52]
If traditional or heritage venues have been swept away - apparently
during conservative administrations in the main - the performing arts
continue in Fulham, like the notable
Fulham Symphony Orchestra and the
successful
Fulham
Fulham Opera.[53] St John's Parish Church, at the top of
North End Road, stages choral and instrumental concerts as do other
churches in the area.[54]
There is a cinema complex as part of the
Fulham
Fulham Broadway Centre.
Fulham
Fulham Town Hall, built in 1888 in the classical renaissance, is now
used as a popular venue for concerts and dances, especially its Grand
Hall. Behind
Fulham

Walham Green has undergone pedestrianization, including the spot once
occupied by the village green and its pond next to St. John's Parish
Church and bordered by a number of cafés, bars, and a dance studio in
the old
Fulham
Fulham Public Baths. The largest supermarket in Fulham, is
located on the site of a cinema later converted to the iconic "Dicky
Dirts" jean store with its sloping shop-floor, at the top of North End
Road's Street market. It started a new trend in how retail was
done.[55]
Gin, breweries and pubs[edit]
Lillie Langtry pub (formerly, 'The Lillie Arms'), 1835
The most illustrious brewery in
Fulham
Fulham was the Swan Brewery, Walham
Green, dating back to the 17th-century. Among its patrons were kings
and other royalty.[56] It was followed by the 'North End Brewery' in
1832, Cannons again in North End in 1867 and finally on account of
temperance, the alcohol-free phenomenon that was
Kops Brewery
Kops Brewery founded
in 1890 at a site in Sands End.[citation needed]
Gin distilling came to the remnants of the North End Brewery in
Seagrave Road after a brief period of service as a timber works in the
1870s and lasted for almost a century. The premises were taken over by
distillers, Vickers who at the outbreak of the
First World War
First World War sold
out to Burnett's, producers of White Satin Gin, until a 1970s
take-over by a Kentucky liquor business. None of the breweries
remain.[citation needed]
With its long history of brewing,
Fulham
Fulham still has a number of pubs
and gastropubs.[57] The oldest tavern is the 'Lillie Langtry' in
Lillie Road, originally the 'Lillie Arms' named after its first
freeholder, Sir John Scott Lillie, who built it in 1835 as part of the
'North End Brewery' complex, run from 1832-3 by a Miss Goslin.[58] It
was intended originally to service the
Kensington Canal
Kensington Canal workers and
bargees. Later, it was the watering hole of the new railway builders,
motor and omnibus company staff and latterly
Earl's Court
Earl's Court exhibition
and
Chelsea F.C.
Chelsea F.C. visitors. Of the three popular neighbouring pubs
acquired by developers during 2014-15, the 'Imperial Arms' and the
'Prince of Wales' were forced to shut; only "the Atlas", reconstructed
after bomb damage in the Second World War, has been reprieved. The
White Horse in

Architectural[edit]

Fulham
Fulham parish's rural past meant that its grand houses and not so
grand vernacular and industrial buildings were either clustered in the
village of Walham Green, along the
Thames
Thames or scattered among the
fields of the hamlet of North End. Many historic structures fell prey
to industrialisation, war-time bombing or a rush to demolition and
redevelopment. Gone are Burne-Jones's 'Grange' in W14 and Foote's
'Hermitage' villa and park as is Lovibond's Cannon Brewery in SW6.[61]
However, the ancient estate of
Fulham
Fulham Palace, the seat of the Bishops
of London, remains the outstanding asset with its medieval and Tudor
features, remnants of the grounds, now divided between public
allotments and a park with a
Kitchen garden
Kitchen garden and the part-excavated
longest moat in England. Part of the buildings are Grade I listed,
while others Grade II*. There are a number of other statutorily and
locally listed structures strewn across Fulham. Worthy of note is the
last remaining conical kiln of the
Fulham
Fulham Pottery. Broomhouse Lane has
a number of structures of interest, ranging from the Broomhouse
draw-dock of medieval origin to 18th-c. cottages (Sycamore and Ivy)
and the Gothic revival Castle Club.[62] The Vineyard in Hurlingham
Road is of 17th-c. origin with later 19th-c. additions such as the
stable buildings.
The Hurlingham Club
The Hurlingham Club and grounds are of 18th-c.
origin and

Grade II* listed.[citation needed]
The winding
North End Road
North End Road has several buildings of note, especially,
'Crowthers' at no. 282, first built in 1712 with its extant 18th-c.
gate-piers and the modernist (1938) Seven Stars public house, now
converted into flats. Church Gate is the approach to All Saints
Church, with its 14-15th-c. tower and 18th-c. tombs in the churchyard.
The New
King's Road
King's Road contains several 18th-c. and early 19th-c.
residences, namely, Northumberland House, Claybrook House, Jasmine
House, Belgrave House and Aragon House, all Grade II listed.[63]
Aragon House, Parsons Green, SW6
Much of the stock in
Fulham
Fulham attests its vigorous 19th-c. industrial
and urban development, most of it, 'low-rise', and benefiting from the
brick-fields that abounded locally at the time. An unlisted vestige of
the early industrial era is the 1826 remnant of Gunter's canal bridge,
still visible from platform 4 at
West Brompton
West Brompton station.[citation
