Hi London Listers,
I am hoping SKS knows some history of Wandsworth. My interest is Frogs
Island and where exactly it might have been on todays map. This is the
Enumerator's Description:

Wandsworth
EN number 17
All Saints Ecclesiastical District

South street both sides form High street to the end of Wandle Place,
including Frog Island , "Something ??" Mill and dwelling houses. Mill place,
skinney row,Wandle Terrace, Selines Yard, Princes Place, Bells Cottages, now
called Childs Cottages and Wandle Place.

Regards mark
