Renting in Brockley

What's it like to live in Brockley?

Brockley is one of south London's best-kept secrets. The Overground provides easy access to Shoreditch and east London. Brockley Market (Saturday mornings) is a foodie favourite, and the Rivoli Ballroom — London's last intact ballroom — is a hidden gem. The housing stock is excellent: wide Victorian streets with well-maintained houses, many converted into spacious flats. Hilly Fields park has panoramic London views. Brockley lacks a tube station but the Overground and rail services compensate. It's quieter than nearby Peckham and cheaper than neighbouring Telegraph Hill.
