A look around a south east London area.
Transcript
00:00Welcome to another edition of Look Around London. Today we're taking a brief look
00:05at the history of Gypsy Hill in South East London. Gypsy Hill, located within the borough
00:11of Lambeth, has a history that dates back to the 19th century. Its name, though intriguing,
00:18does not have a clear connection to the Romani people, despite common belief. However,
00:24some historians think the name originated from Gypsy as a reference to the area's rural,
00:30somewhat isolated setting. Today, Gypsy Hill is a vibrant and diverse part of London,
00:36offering a mix of Victorian homes. Its rich history is reflected in the blend of new and
00:42old houses, making it a unique part of the capital. That's a quick look at Gypsy Hill.
