Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Sherlies Avenue. In the 1870s 5 large houses were built on the north side of Tubbenden Lane to the south of Orpington Station, the largest and easternmost being called Sherlies with the others being (from east to west) Northolme, The Alchornes. Fernbank and Sunnyside. All these other four are shown in the 1881 census with the name "Sherlies" next to the house name, suggesting that they were all part of the same original plot, subdivided for building purposes.
All the houses have since been demolished, at different times, with their sites developed for housing. This is Sherlies Avenue at its junction with Northolme Rise. As explained in 1260317, this section of Sherlies Avenue would appear to be of a later date than the remainder, built at the same time as Northolme, on which this section stands, was developed. With thanks to local resident Calvin Wickham for help with the research into the history of Sherlies and its neighbours. |
