Harleyford Road Community Garden
In earlier times, a Georgian Terrace with long back gardens fronted onto Harleyford Road, but the majority of the houses were demolished in the early 1970s. The chance to site a community garden here was realised in 1984 by the Vauxhall Housing Co-operative, who formed the Harleyford Road Garden Association to carry out a feasibility study with the help of a small grant. Most of the land belonged to the Greater London Council and when this was abolished in 1986, lease negotiations became protracted. The land finally came under the Borough Council's Housing Department, from whom the Garden Association now hold a management lease.
Work on the design and layout of the site began in 1986 and Harleyford Road Community Garden was officially opened two years later. It had already started to be used by local people, however, such is the demand for open space in this very built-up part of the Borough.

St Marks CE School
The 1820s saw the foundation of two schools at the Oval, Kennington. After raising the necessary voluntary subscriptions, the boys' school opened at the end of 1824 and the girls' school in the spring of 1825. The name proposed for the schools was the Kennington and South Lambeth National School, but they were soon referred to as the National Schools or District Schools, even the Oval Schools. In reflection of the close links with St Mark's Church, the name was later changed to St Mark Kennington Schools. The school is now known as St Mark's CE Primary School.http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/rd/125dcaa7-2aff-4f20-84db-749d75b8bd92
