Fulham is a district inside the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham in southwest London. It is 3.7 miles south-west from Charing Cross, making it an Inner London district. It is on the north bank of the River Thames, in between Hammersmith and Kensington and Chelsea, facing Putney and Barnes. Formerly, it had been a parish in the county of Middlesex. It’s identified in the London Plan as one of the 35 major centres in Greater London. Fulham’s reputation of industrial enterprise extends back to the 15th century, with its Mill at Millshot on the south side of what is now Fulham Palace Road. There was also a pottery, tapestry-weaving, paper-making and brewing industry in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in the region of what is now called Fulham High Street. The subsequent two centuries had been known for power production, transportation, the automotive industry, food production and laundries. For the first half of the twentieth century, Fulham remained mostly working class with pockets of wealth in the North End, along the top of Lillie Road and New King’s Road. Specifically wealthy regions were Parsons Green, Eel Brook Common, South Park and the area around the Hurlingham Club. The location attracted waves of immigration, and swift changes meant that there was poverty – Charles Dickens and Charles Booth noted this, and there were poorhouses that attracted benefactors. These days, Fulham is rated as among the most expensive parts of London and the UK overall. The typical sale price of all property in 2007 was £639,973 – and is most likely to be much more now.
