Just found My Gran was born there. No. 60. Looked on Streetmap(.)Com and it looks like it still there. Anyone know if it's old houses ot new developments? ... Thanks..... Linda

Linda, I looked at Streetmap - the only Nelson Row I could find was in Co.Durham. I also checked Multimap but there's no Nelson Row in Clapham. M. Steer

I have my very old A-Z and it is there. I am just going to look in my modern one for you. Irene

Yes it is still there. Perhaps someone who lives in that area can help you. Good luck Irene.

There's an excellent site on pictures of South London. It includes a smashing picture picture of Clapham High Street in 1908: http://www.ideal-homes.org.uk/lambeth/main/images-clapham.htm
