Best Answer

The town of Brockley, England was an agricultural area until the early 1800s when it was connected to London first by canal, and then later by railroad. In the late 1800s the area began to develop as a retreat for many wealthy industrialists who built great mansions in the town. Following the Second World War, where Brockley was heavily damaged by German bombs and rockets, the town began to develop as an artistic community in the 1960s. With the early 2000s, there has been a concerted effort by many real estate developers to begin major projects in the area in an attempt to rejuvenate the town.
