Kennington Local Information
Comfortably situated in the borough of Lambeth, Kennington is a
largely working class town in the heart of what is known as The
Oval. Edward III gave the area now known as Kennington to his oldest
son Edward known widely as “The Black Prince” who built
a large royal palace on an expansive piece of land that remains
to this day. The palace is worth seeing, although extensive renovations
are still in the process of being completed, and may limit your
tour.
Kennington Park and St. Mark’s Churchyard now cover the area
known as Kennington Common. Back in 1796, the Surrey County Gallows
was used for the execution of nine leaders of the Jacobite Rebellion.
Today, the area is the site for much less gruesome activities, and
includes green space and recreational areas for the many families
that reside there.
There is much work to do in Kennington as the schools and jobs
are not up to par with the surrounding areas. Homes are modest,
and most of the shopping and eateries are centrally located in the
town center for convenience. Pricier fare and shopping options are
scarce, but part of a longer term plan for the struggling area.
On a more positive note, parking is abundant for your car rental
from The Car Hire Company.
