To heat water rather than use air source pump I work away all wk so it would save me heating a full tank from cold
Bellingham
Bellingham is a district in south east London, in the London Borough of Lewisham. Its neighbouring districts are Catford, Downham and Sydenham. The Ravensbourne River runs through the centre of Bellingham, also to the west and east it is bordered by railway lines working south from Catford.
The name Bellingham means ‘the water-meadow owned by Beora’s people’, and was the true name of the medieval manor in the region. The name was preserved by the farm in the area, Bellingham Railway Station and the Bellingham Estate. Other historical names have been preserved by the road brands of the estate, which are linked with King Alfred, who was thought to have already been the lord of the manor of Lewisham, and were taken from the names of mills, houses and fields in the certain region.
Bellingham was farmland before Bellingham Estate was built, between 1920 and 1923. London City Council built about 2600 houses and flats in this time. Bellingham Estate was among the many huge estates constructed by London City Council after the First World War to aid with slum clearance and relieve overcrowding. As there is plenty of land available most of the dwellings built were two-story houses, and there was plenty of green, open space.
Today, Bellingham is a localised city centre. Its high street is Randlesdown Road, which has a supermarket, a fitness center, hairdressers and multiple restaurants and food outlets. It has a sixth form college also, and a church and a library. Bellingham boasts many famous recent and present residents, including the singer/song-writer Kate Bush, the former Labour Prime Minister James Callaghan, and the footballer Ian Wright.
