Lambeth bids for Mayor of London's cash to improve cycling facilities in the borough
Rishli Singh, of Kennington Road, said: “In Lambeth the hoards of cyclist are on the rise which causes great concern.
“Motorists must pay insurance and what is mistakenly called ‘Road Tax’ only to be surrounded by cyclists causing congestion and accidents.”

Scotland were the first to establish their dominance, winning eight out of nine matches between 1876 and 1884, their only mishap during that period a preposterous 5-4 defeat at the Kennington Oval in 1879, Scotland giving up a 4-1 lead and scoring the first international own goal while doing so

New shared-ownership homes in Oval
Oval will be thrust into the spotlight in three weeks with the final match in the Ashes Test series. At other times, this no-frills area struggles to have an identity beyond the world-famous cricket ground, despite being a well-connected Zone 2 address, close to the river, and a short hop from the West End and the City.
Yet, step beyond the cricket ground, ringed by dreary tenements and a gas works, and there are some property surprises: handsome Edwardian mansion blocks, lofts in factory and school conversions, charming Duchy of Cornwall Estate homes — cottages and townhouses built just before the First World War — and delightful Bonnington Square, with its resident-run pleasure garden and café.
