A small shops and houses terrace seen from Spring Gardens. The shops in these premises have long since been converted into living accommodation as the small local shop gave way to the economic pressures of the supermarkets. The street is named after the Tyers family who opened Spring Gardens, then also known as Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens, in 1661. A full history of the gardens can be found at http://www.vauxhallandkennington.org.uk/sgdetail.shtml .
