various causes the Peckham & East Dulwich Tramways,
and London Tramways have been withdrawn,

(Nunhead and Shortlands), and the Croydon
Direct Railway, and London, Reigate & Brighton
Railway have all been rejected in Parliament.

The small portion of this Company's system,
situate within this parish at Denmark Hill, from
Camberwell Green to Cold Harbour Lane, has been
constructed according to plans sanctioned by the
Board of Trade and the Vestry, and was opened for
traffic in December, 1883. This affords Tramway
communication between Camberwell, Brixton &
Clapham, and ultimately with Norwood.
