Farming in Dulwich, which had provided income for the Priory of Bermondsey for 400 years and for almost as long for Alleyn’s College of God’s Gift, was virtually over by the outbreak of the First World War. Its decline was slow and its demise was finally brought about by the efficiency of home milk deliveries by the new giant dairy companies which sprang up with the introduction of bottling plants, homogenised milk and the use of milk trains for nation-wide distribution.
Local historian Brian Green shows us how Dulwich farms became the sports fields of today.
