Battersea
Battersea is a residential district of south London in the London Borough of Wandsworth. It's 2.9 miles south west of Charing Cross. The district has one of southwest London’s principal parks, Battersea Park.
In 2001, Battersea had a human population of 75,651, but by 2011 the number stood at 73,345, noting a small reduction. There's a significant section of public housing estates constructed in the mid-20th century, nearly all situated north of the principal railway lines from Fairfield to Queenstown. There are 4 substantially big estates; Surrey Lane Estate towards the north, Doddington and Rollo Estate, Patmore Estate to the east and the Winstanley Estate, which is identified to be the birthplace of the garage collective So Solid Crew.
There are several notable landmarks in Battersea, one of that is the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home. Before that, the Temporary Home for Lost and Starving Dogs was based in Battersea following moving from Holloway in 1871. Other landmarks include the New Covent Garden Market, a significant fruit and vegetable wholesale market, plus the now disused Battersea Power Station which was constructed between 1929 and 1939. There have already been lots of redevelopment projects since the 1980s to make the station into an entertainment and commercial complex, but up to now all attempts have failed.
