About This Book
An antiquarian walking narrative that follows a route from central London to Fulham, combining close observations of streets, houses, churches, and landscape with historical notes, local anecdotes, and recollections of past residents; the author records architectural features, changing urban development, and vanished landmarks, and supplements the main text with a memoir, editorial notes, illustrations, footnotes, and indexes to places and names, creating a topographical and social portrait intended both as a guide to the route and a preservative record of associations altered by modern improvements.
