This story sets out the case for the full retention of the Lillie Enclave in north-east Fulham and its sensitive integration within the Earls Court redevelopment. The purpose of this work is to alert the reader to the connections that abound here and to why demolition, proposed by an ambitious regeneration scheme, matters.
This fascinating monograph by Elizabeth Corwin, a long-time local resident, shows how that gap in local knowledge can be filled, with attention to detail and filled with affection. And it is this affection for the Lillie Enclave at the north end of Fulham that shines through, introducing us to a rich history and vestiges that have borne witness to change.
'This narrative highlights the fact that every part of London, however small, has a rich history and Elizabeth Corwin has brought it to life with a wealth of detail and excellent biographies'.
Christian Wolmar Author of ‘The Subterranean Railway’
