EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of West side St Agnes Place in Kennington, South London during the 1960s. The image showcases a row of beautiful Victorian terraced houses that once formed part of a squatted street, known for its resistance against eviction orders for over three decades. This vibrant community stood strong until July 2007 when the site was eventually demolished. In this snapshot from yesteryears, we witness these terraces before they fell into disrepair and were later inhabited by squatters. The architectural details are striking, showcasing the charm and character of this era. Amidst the backdrop of these historic buildings, one can spot a garbage bin nearby, reminding us of the everyday life that unfolded on these streets. It is worth noting that this photograph holds an intriguing connection to music legend Bob Marley and his Rastafarian faith. Though not explicitly mentioned in the caption provided by TopFoto, it is believed that one of these terraced houses served as a temple or gathering place for Rastafarians during this time. Overall, this image serves as a poignant reminder of both resilience and change within communities throughout history. It encapsulates an era where social movements clashed with urban development while highlighting the beauty found even amidst adversity.
