The delightful row of wooden cottages known as Mount Pleasant are accessed off Bridges Lane across the infant River Wandle via a small footbridge. They were originally built for the workers at the nearby former Beddington Mill. This was a manorial mill dating back to Domesday, grinding corn for much of its working life but converted to Lambert's Snuff Mill for most of the 18th and 19th centuries - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1767182
