Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited was commissioned to undertake building recording of 190-192 Warham Street SE5 to English Heritage Level 2. Because the properties had been demolished in advance of historic building recording, the assessment was based upon photographic evidence and drawings supplied by the client, supplemented by historical research. In the decade after the completion of Camberwell New Road in 1818 a number of side streets were laid out on both sides, including Bath Street, which provided access to James and Thomas Streets beyond. These three streets were renamed Warham Street in 1893. Census returns indicated that 190 Warham Street was used as a coffee shop and dining rooms for at least 50 years from the early 1860s, while 192 was a confectioner's shop from the 1900s until after the Second World War. The name of William Hall, who acquired the latter premises in 1949, was preserved on the fascia board of the shop until its recent demolition. 190 Warham Street became a fried fish shop c.1920 and continued to be a fast food outlet until the early 21st century. Building recording suggested that both properties were probably built during the 2nd or 3d quarter of the 19th century. A narrow extension was added to the rear of 192 during the 1870s or 1880s. Building recording confirmed that both had decorated shop frontages typical of 19th century retail design, much of which had survived under unsympathetic modern fascias. |
