A short history of SW18

The River Wandle gave Wandsworth its name. Domesday Book of 1086 records the place as Wandesorde and Wendelesorde, meaning an enclosure belonging to a man called Waendel. Part of the manor belonged to William, son of Ansculfy while St Wandrille's Abbey held the rest. It was assessed at 12 hides with 22 acres of meadow and rendered £9. Southfields derives its name from the southern open field of Dunsford manor, an earlier name recorded at least as far back as 1247. Dutch metalworkers arrived in the 1590s then Huguenots in the 17th century. A gas plant was built in 1834. Southfields stayed open fields until the railway opened in 1889 and nine Grid streets were approved in 1891. A power station supplied electricity from 1897 to 1964. The Grid was effectively finished by mid 1906. Of 52 listed buildings five are Grade II*, including the Ram Brewery Complex and Church Row.
