ROOKERY, STREATHAM COMMON

ROOKERY, STREATHAM COMMON

The Rookery, Streatham Common. This popular ornamental public garden was laid out in the grounds of 'The Rookery', a large house that stood on the top level, which was acquired and demolished by the LCC in 1913. Located on the site of one of Streatham's original mineral wells the lower level includes a wishing well as part of the well maintained flower garden, seen here. This view shows the steps to the top level seating on the right. Digital image courtesy of G E Mahmoud, 2004.
