We used to live on Ivanhoe Rd. I think that side of the road has been mainly residential for a long, long time. Although there was a minicab office on that side of the road in the early 2000s.


The pub on the corner opened (in it's final incarnation as "Hoopers") around 2008, and it was a nice place, but sadly didn't work out and closed maybe three years ago.

I checked the census for you.


In 1901, Edgar and Alice Bryant were at No. 32. He was a hairdresser. No. 34 was uninhabited.

No. 36 was a Grocers - Arthur and Martha Simmons with their 6 children. No. 38 was a Drapers.


In 1891, No. 32 was uninhabited. At No. 34 was the verger of St Saviour's, and family - Charles and Rebecca Milner with their 2 children, Susan, 20 and William, 19. At No. 36 was Joseph and Elizabeth Morris, Provisions Dealer. At No. 38 were 2 sisters, Emma and Edith Rolfe - it was a Stationers/Confectioners.

I have a subscription to Ancestry.co.uk. They have all the census records in their database. I did look for your house in 1881, but the houses only show up as names, so hard to tell where No. 34 would be - if indeed it had been built yet.


You might get lucky with just a google search for old maps of London.

I tracked down the 1911 census for you too.... The address was written as 34 Ivanhoe Road, Denmark Park, SE.

34 Ivanhoe Rd

Frederick Burrin age 44 Grocer

Kate Eliza Burrin age 46 wife

Winifred Evelyn Burrin age 11 daughter


No 36 was a newsagent and tobacconist.

    • I can't answer your question. But on them generally: it's changed hands in the last year or so, I think. I paid £35 for interior and exterior and they did a crap job. I'll go to the one on Herne Hill (or just do it myself if health allows) next time.
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays! 
    • Was that the one where you put a coin in and it squirted water at you? what was the name of the one in hanway street - whatever you ordered it came on a segmented tray like you get in prison (I imagine). Prices were a steal.
