Elfindale is one of several residential roads that were built in Edwardian times in the triangle of land between Half Moon Lane and the road known as Herne Hill. On the 1899 Ordnance Survey map the area is virtually empty with only the two roads parallel to Elfindale, Holmdene Avenue and Hollingbourne Road, being shown and then with only a few houses. By 1916 the map shows the whole estate from Danecroft Road south-westwards as being developed.
