Fulham is a district within the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham in southwest London. It’s 3.7 miles south-west from Charing Cross, making it an Inner London district. It’s on the north bank of the River Thames, between Hammersmith and Kensington and Chelsea, facing Putney and Barnes. Formerly, it had been a parish within the county of Middlesex. It is identified in the London Plan as one of the 35 major centres in Greater London. Fulham’s reputation of industrial enterprise dates back to the 15th century, with its Mill at Millshot on the south side of what’s now Fulham Palace Road. There was also a pottery, tapestry-weaving, paper-making and brewing industry during the 17th and 18th centuries in the area of what’s now generally known as Fulham High Street. The following two hundred years had been recognized for power production, transportation, the automotive industry, food production and laundries. For the first half of the 20th century, Fulham remained mainly working class with pockets of wealth at the North End, along the top of Lillie Road and New King’s Road. Particularly rich places were Parsons Green, Eel Brook Common, South Park as well as the region surrounding the Hurlingham Club. The region attracted waves of immigration, and rapid changes meant that there was poverty – Charles Dickens and Charles Booth noted this, and there were poorhouses that attracted benefactors. Today, Fulham is rated among the most highly-priced parts of London and the UK overall. The average sale price of all property in 2007 was £639,973 – and is most likely to be considerably more now.
