Fulham
Fulham is a district within the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham in southwest London. It is 3.7 miles south-west from Charing Cross, which makes it an Inner London district. It's on the north bank of the River Thames, between Hammersmith and Kensington and Chelsea, facing Putney and Barnes. Formerly, it was a parish in the county of Middlesex. It's identified in the London Plan as among the 35 major centres in Greater London.
Fulham's history of industrial enterprise dates back to the 15th century, with its Mill at Millshot on the south side of what's now Fulham Palace Road. There was also a pottery, tapestry-weaving, paper-making and brewing industry during the 17th and 18th centuries in the region of what's now called Fulham High Street. The subsequent two hundred years were known for power production, transportation, the automotive industry, food production and laundries.
For the first part of the twentieth century, Fulham remained typically working class with pockets of wealth at the North End, along the top of Lillie Road and New King's Road. Especially wealthy locations were Parsons Green, Eel Brook Common, South Park plus the area surrounding the Hurlingham Club. The region attracted waves of immigration, and quick changes meant that there was poverty - Charles Dickens and Charles Booth noted this, and there were poorhouses that attracted benefactors.
Currently, Fulham is rated among the most costly parts of London and the UK overall. The typical sale price of all property in 2007 was £639,973 - and is likely to be substantially more now.
