EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Carrington House, Deptford: A Beacon of Affordable Housing for Working Men in Early 20th Century London Carrington House, located in Deptford, was erected in 1903 as a hostel for working men by the London County Council. This impressive red-brick building, captured in this circa 1908 photograph, stands as a testament to the council's commitment to providing affordable housing solutions for the working class population of London. Designed along the lines of the renowned Rowton Houses, Carrington House offered clean, cheap lodgings to men who sought refuge from overcrowded and unsanitary living conditions prevalent in many parts of the city. The London County Council, recognizing the importance of providing decent housing for its working population, aimed to create a living environment that fostered health, comfort, and community. Carrington House was more than just a place to sleep; it offered its residents a sense of belonging and camaraderie. The communal living spaces, shared facilities, and the presence of a warden ensured a sense of security and order. The building also housed a dining hall, where residents could enjoy their meals, fostering a sense of community and shared experience. This photograph captures the essence of Carrington House as it stood in the early days of the 20th century. The building's imposing facade, with its tall, arched windows and red-brick exterior, stands proudly against the backdrop of the bustling Deptford scene. The image offers a glimpse into a time when the London County Council, through initiatives like Carrington House, played a crucial role in shaping the city's social fabric and improving the lives of its working-class residents.
