Franconia Road is a typical late-Victorian, middle-class terrace development within the grid of streets around Abbeville Road. The area developed rapidly as the spread of railways and the Tube in the area made commuting practical. The area, known as Clapham Park (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clapham_Park ), is also sometimes referred to as Abbeville Village.
