Goose Green History

[dollshouseman]

Hi there

I was wondering if you could help. I am restoring and researching a dolls house, built around 1859.

Its called Goose Green House and was a copy of a large house that stood in or near Goose Green.

Can you advise me where I might find further information about this house.

Regards

Try getting in touch with John at Chener Books

There were a string of large houses along what is now the south side of Goose Green, so it could have been one of these.

The last one (when I lived there) was subdivided in to flats and operating as a local taxi firm at the eastern corner of Oakhurst Grove and East Dulwich Road. Almost the entire east side of Oakhuest Grove is built in what was originally its back garden.

However, I don't know the dates it was built, or even if it or the taxi firm are still there now.

I've attached a kmz file for a Google Earth placement if that helps?
