All year Wed - Sun 10.30-16.00


Vauxhall farm is absolutely wonderful with lot's of gorgeous animals to see such as alpacas, goats, cows, guinea pigs, ferrets and many more.


It's free but a donation is always welcome to help feed those hungry animals.


To avoid the congestion charge, turn left into Windmill Row off Kennington Road, then left again into Kennington lane and park in Tesco's for a free two hours. Turn left out of Tesco's entrance and the farm is on the right 5 minute's walk away.


Vauxhall station is close by.


afterwards you might like to visit Bonnington Square and check out the community gardens and playgrounds.


there is a fabulous Italian Deli and Cafe and also a veggie cafe in the square.


On Fridays at the farm Ruby Rhymes-Drop in music is on at 10.30am for parents and babies-toddlers up to 5 years old. ?5/?3 per family.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
