Roehampton Local Information
Roehampton is a large village in south west London, 6.3 miles from
Charing Cross. The village has a large number of learning institutions
including Roehampton University and Queen Mary Hospital, a teaching
centre for medical students.
The old village of Roehampton is a very affluent area with many
large detached houses. An old watering trough for Victorian carriages
still remains at the junction of Medfield Street and Roehampton
Lane. During the 18th century several aristocrats built their summer
residences in Roehampton. These included Parkstead House, Downshire
House, Grove House and Mount Clare which are now all part of the
University of Roehampton’s campus.
Roehampton also houses the Alton Estate which is one of the largest
council housing estates in the UK. The estate was used as a location
for the futuristic 1966 film ‘Fahrenheit 451’. In recent
years a process of regeneration has been under way on the estate.
Two former Prime Ministers, William Pitt the Younger and the Earl
of Derby resided for a time in Roehampton as did the actor Sean
Connery and William Harvey who discovered the principles of blood
circulation.
Take a drive down Roehampton Lane in your van hire vehicle from
