Wooden Window Repair in Battersea

Battersea

Battersea is a residential district of south London within the London Borough of Wandsworth. It's 2.9 miles south west of Charing Cross. The district has one of southwest London’s primary parks, Battersea Park.

In 2001, Battersea had a citizenry of 75,651, but by 2011 the number stood at 73,345, noting a small reduction. There is a substantial area of public housing estates constructed during the mid-20th century, almost all situated north of the principal railway lines from Fairfield to Queenstown. There are four considerably big estates; Surrey Lane Estate towards the north, Doddington and Rollo Estate, Patmore Estate to the east along with the Winstanley Estate, that is identified for being the birthplace of the garage collective So Solid Crew.

You will find a variety of notable landmarks in Battersea, one of which is the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home. Prior to that, the Temporary Home for Lost and Starving Dogs was based in Battersea soon after moving from Holloway in 1871. Other landmarks include the New Covent Garden Market, a significant fruit and vegetable wholesale market place, and the now disused Battersea Power Station which was built between 1929 and 1939. There have already been several redevelopment projects since the 1980s to make the station into an entertainment and commercial complex, but thus far all attempts have failed.
