Fulham is a district within the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham in southwest London. It is 3.7 miles south-west from Charing Cross, rendering 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 within the county of Middlesex. It is identified in the London Plan as among the list of 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 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 area of what is now generally known as Fulham High Street. The following 2 centuries were identified for power production, transportation, the automotive industry, food production and laundries. For the first part of the 20th century, Fulham remained mainly working class with pockets of wealth in the North End, along the top of Lillie Road and New King’s Road. Specifically wealthy areas were Parsons Green, Eel Brook Common, South Park and the region surrounding the Hurlingham Club. The location attracted waves of immigration, and fast changes meant that there was poverty – Charles Dickens and Charles Booth noted this, and there were poorhouses that attracted benefactors. Now, Fulham is rated as one of the most expensive parts of London and the United Kingdom overall. The typical sale price of all property in 2007 was £639,973 – and is likely to be much more now.
