Get Battersea [pros|landscapers]

Battersea is a residential district of south London within the London Borough of Wandsworth. It is 4.8 km south west of Charing Cross. The district has one of southwest London’s key parks, Battersea Park. In 2001, Battersea had a human population of 75,651, but by 2011 the number stood at 73,345, noting a slight reduction. There’s a large section of public housing estates constructed during the mid-20th century, nearly all situated north of the principal railway lines from Fairfield to Queenstown. There are four substantially substantial estates; Surrey Lane Estate to the north, Doddington and Rollo Estate, Patmore Estate towards the east as well as the Winstanley Estate, that is recognised for being the birthplace of the garage collective So Solid Crew. You will find numerous notable landmarks in Battersea, one of that is the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home. Prior to that, the Temporary Home for Lost and Starving Dogs was based in Battersea after moving from Holloway in 1871. Other landmarks include the New Covent Garden Market, a major fruit and vegetable wholesale marketplace, as well as the now disused Battersea Power Station which was built between 1929 and 1939. There have been many redevelopment projects since the 1980s to convert the station into an entertainment and commercial complex, but up to now all attempts failed.
