Asylum Road

Product Information

I had no previous knowledge of the history of the buildings on the far side of Mistral Garden. I did know that the Town Hall was still in use and Central House and East House were Council offices. In the Camberwell Library I found and bought Mary Boast’s book The Story of Camberwell (1972). I began to look up references to Camberwell House in history books and on the internet.

It is not a novel that is easily forgotten. Sudjic is not herself a survivor of Sarajevo – she was born in London – but by compelling us to feel as Anya feels, to bear witness to the harrowing legacy of a war that dominated our television screens but not, perhaps, our hearts, she incriminates us all.

We know some local residents have some concerns regarding overlooking and we have listened to those concerns and have factored them into the new design. Is there any outdoor space being incorporated into the design? The domestic items include several small buttons. There is a pearl button, a cloth covered button which may have come from a nurse’s uniform and suspender buttons marked ‘Suspender’ or ‘Excelsior’. One theory that I have read suggested that suspender straps and buttons were confiscated from women psychiatric patients to help prevent suicide attempts. However it could be the that buttons were stored in the Housekeeper’s room ready for sewing repairs. There was also a thimble.

These were perhaps stored in a medical room or cupboard.The postcode SE15 2SQ does not show a significant deviation from the average figures for the UK.
