Sculpture to the lavender industry, Wallington
Lavender and herb growing were very prominent in the area in Victorian times and much earlier, and extensive fields of lavender were to be seen in the Carshalton, Beddington and Wallington areas. Lavender growing was a very prosperous part of the local agriculture hereabouts in the 19th and early 20th centuries. In Wallington the area to the north of the station was chiefly used. The scale of the operation can be understood from the fact that the Daily News in 1914 was able to state that at Carshalton Beeches “In every direction the low hill sides of the farm beyond Beeches Halt are swept with the bloomy pastel tint of the lavender flowers”. This sculpture at the junction of Woodcote Road and Stafford Road commemorates the local lavender industry.

Lavender sculpture, Wallington crossroads
The slopes of the North Downs in what is now the London Borough of Sutton have been a centre for lavender cultivation for centuries. This sculpture is one of the ways the area marks this heritage; among others, local Scouts use lavender as the logo for the Sutton area on their shoulder badges.
