Herne Hill, SE24

Herne Hill is a place in the London Borough of Lambeth and the London Borough of Southwark in Greater London. There is a road of the same name which is part of the A215, formerly known as "Heron's Hill".

The name Herne Hill initially appeared in 1789, when the area was farms and woodland. The River Effra ran through parts of the area.

Herne Hill situated between the more well-known areas of Brixton and Dulwich, and is home to Brockwell Park. On the top of the hill in Brockwell Park stands Brockwell Hall, which was built in 1831. The land surrounding it was opened to the public in 1891 after it was purchased by London County Council. Brockwell Park hosts the annual Lambeth Country Fair and was the site of London's Gay Pride festival for several years in the 1990s. The park also houses the magnificent Brockwell Lido, an open-air swimming pool built in 1937 which boasts many attractions such as hair braiding, body painting and yoga classes during the summer.

Situated in a park off Burbage Road, the Herne Hill Velodrome was built in 1891, is the only remaining cycle racing track in London, and hosted the track cycling events in the 1948 Olympic Games. Unlike most modern, steeply-banked velodromes, it is a shallow concrete bowl. It also has a football pitch, and was home of Crystal Palace F.C. from 1915 until 1918.
