Excerpt: ...eleven women of Surrey against eleven of Hampshire. It lasted two days; and was said to have been made between two noblemen for the sum of five hundred guineas. A turnpike marks the intersection of the roads mentioned, with that to Kingsland on the one hand, and to the termination of the Upper Street, &c. on the other. The last-mentioned is Hopping Lane; north of which lies the plot of land, containing twelve acres nearly, before spoken of as "The Hoppinge," or Hop-Ground, which, though within Highbury manor, is the freehold property of the Marquess of Northampton1. It was for many years occupied as a nursery, known as "Barr's," and afterwards as "Brooks's;" but is at this time occupied, for the most part, by a line of houses called St. Paul's Terrace. St. PauVs Church stands at the angle formed by the union of Hopping Lane with the Lower Road. This is one of the three new churches built under the arrangement made by the Church Commissioners with our parish authorities in 18252. It was erected at an expense of 10,947/. 16s. 6d.; and contains 1793 sittings, of which 817 are free. The minister is the Rev. John Sandys, M.A. The style is Gothic; and, as regards both its general features and details, this structure is worthy the established reputation of its architect, Mr. Charles Barry. It consists of a body, side-aisles, and a square embattled tower. Clerestory windows, elegantly pointed arches and columns, a canopied altar-piece, and a stained-glass window (containing the royal arms) at the east end, form the principal ornaments of the interior. Strictly connected with this ecclesiastical edifice are the St. Paul's District Schools, situate in a neighbouring street called Cross Street. Originally promoted...

Book excerpt: Packed with surprising and fascinating information, London's Lost Rivers uncovers a very different side to London - showing how waterways shaped our principal city and exploring the legacy they leave today. With individual maps to show the course of each river and over 100 colour photographs, it's essential browsing for any Londoner and the perfect gift for anyone who loves exploring the past... 'An amazing book' -- BBC Radio London 'Talling's highly visual, fact-packed, waffle-free account is the freshest take we've yet seen. A must-buy for anyone who enjoys the "hidden" side of London -- Londonist 'A fascinating and stylish guide to exploring the capital's forgotten brooks, waterways, canals and ditches ... it's a terrific book' - Walk 'Pocket-sized, beautifully designed, illustrated and informative - in short a joy to read, handle and use' -- ***** Reader review 'Delightful, informative and beautifully produced' -- ***** Reader review 'A small gem. A really great book. I can't put it down' -- ***** Reader review 'Fascinating from start to finish' -- ***** Reader review ************************************************************************************************ From the sources of the Fleet in Hampstead's ponds to the mouth of the Effra in Vauxhall, via the meander of the Westbourne through 'Knight's Bridge' and the Tyburn's curve along Marylebone Lane, London's Lost Rivers unearths the hidden waterways that flow beneath the streets of the capital. Paul Talling investigates how these rivers shaped the city - forming borough boundaries and transport networks, fashionable spas and stagnant slums - and how they all eventually gave way to railways, roads and sewers. Armed with his camera, he traces their routes and reveals their often overlooked remains: riverside pubs on the Old Kent Road, healing wells in King's Cross, 'stink pipes' in Hammersmith and gurgling gutters on streets across the city. Packed with maps and over 100 colour photographs, London's Lost Rivers uncovers the watery history of the city's most famous sights, bringing to life the very different London that lies beneath our feet.
