Mitcham Local History and Places to Visit
Rumour has it human habitation in Mitcham extends back thousands of years, beyond the time of the Romans and Saxons. Such ancient history is based on the finding of a possible Celtic hill fort at Pollards Hill in Mitcham, now an area of dense suburban housing. More definite findings exist of Roman-era graves (at the site of the Mitcham gas plant) and Anglo-Saxon graves on the north bank of the local Wandle river. In fact the Anglo-Saxon graveyard is the largest discovered to date, and many of the finds form there are now on display at the British Museum.
Mitcham is in the London Borough of Merton and may have been the site of Battle of Merton, 871, in which King Ethelred of Wessex was mortally wounded. The Church of England parish church of St Peter and St Paul dates from the early Kingdom of England. Mostly rebuilt in 1819–1821, the current building retains the original Saxon tower.
The river Wandle is a 9 mile tributary that flows into the Thames. Local heavy industry since Victorian times has resulted in the river being heavily polluted for many years taking a heavy toll on the fish stock and wildlife. More recently however extensive clean-ups have improved the water quality dramatically. Local anglers have seen the return of the river's brown trout and currently thriving stocks of chub, roach and dace all flourishing once again. It is a real novelty for the locals to see fish being caught in a small river in the London suburbs with the lorries and traffic rolling by. See here for some great fishing action!
Good places to visit in Mitcham include the Pop Up Cafe for breakfast. For activities and events the New Horizon Centre run by Commonside Community Development Trust in Pollards Hill is always busy with lots going on.
