A bit about the area: Hatcham CA is a quiet tucked-away residential pocket of south London. From 1614, the land was owned by the Worshipful Company of Haberdashers. When the manor house ('Hatcham Park') was demolished circa 1840, terraced homes were permitted to be built. Rescued from demolition in the seventies, Hatcham Conservation Area was designated by Lewisham Council in 1990.
Stroll - passing further Victorian housing stock - 12 minutes New Cross Gate Station. There are also plenty of day and night bus routes within a short walk of the house; to Elephant & Castle and beyond, or to Peckham, Deptford, Greenwich, Brockley and Lewisham.
Local parks include Telegraph Hill (Upper and Lower, with Saturday Farmers' Market, or hop on a bus down to Brockley Market), Southwark and Fordham Parks. There are also two little neighbourhood parks: Eckington Gardens and Bridgehouse Meadows. Besson Street Community Garden is a delightful local asset as well.
Local eateries, drinkeries and cafes of note include Corner (cafe/bar), The Old Library (bar plus music studios/live music venue), The Rose Inn, Cup.PhoBun and The Earl of Derby.
Nip down to neighbouring SE15 for more options, including Peckham Bazaar, Ganapati, The Begging Bowl, Forza Wine, Artusi, Levan, Peckham Levels, and Il Giardino.
Cool Deptford has a top gastronomic and bar offering as well. We rate Jazu, Watergate (small plates, cocktails, wine), Marcella (modern Italian), Salt (pizza, craft beer) and The Dog & Bell pub to name a few.
Deptford also has a great theatre: The Albany, and a modern leisure centre with lane pool and sauna/steam rooms, next door to the library.
New Cross is home to Goldsmiths University and a cool contemporary art gallery: Goldsmiths CCA.
Grab your fresh loaves from Blackbird Bakery by QRP station, or at Ayres on nearby Nunhead Lane. While you're in Nunhead, check out such delights as Soper's (wet fish shop), El Vermut and Mother Superior (fancy bottle shops with tables) Goodcup/Goodnights (coffee/cocktails) and Bar D4100 (bar and pizza).
Kids or on the horizon? Your most local primary is just at the end of the road (in a traditional Victorian school building with a modern architectural treatment by Jestico + Whiles, and which feeds to the secondary school based in New Cross's Telegraph Hill Conservation Area), Edmund Waller and Kender. Deptford Green is a second well-regarded local secondary school.
