Courtenay Square, Courtenay Street, Cardigan Street, Denny Street and Denny Crescent were laid out to a design by architects <a href="/wiki/Stanley_Adshead" title="Stanley Adshead">Stanley Davenport Adshead</a>, <a href="/wiki/Stanley_Ramsey" title="Stanley Ramsey">Stanley Churchill Ramsay</a> and JD Coleridge, in a Neo-Georgian style. </p><p>In 1922, Lambeth Hospital on Brook Drive was created from a former workhouse. Under the control of the London County Council, Lambeth Hospital, which had a capacity of 1,250 patients in 1939, was one of the largest hospitals in London. After the <a href="/wiki/National_Health_Service" title="National Health Service">National Health Service</a> was formed, Lambeth Hospital became an acute general hospital. In 1976, the North Wing of St. Thomas' Hospital opened; services transferred there, and Lambeth Hospital was closed. A substantial part of the site has today been redeveloped for apartments, although some buildings are occupied by the Lambeth Community Care Centre. </p><p>Kennington station was substantially remodelled in 1925 to accommodate the Charing Cross branch of the <a href="/wiki/Northern_line" title="Northern line">Northern line</a> along with the improvements to the <a href="/wiki/City_and_South_London_Railway" title="City and South London Railway">City and South London Railway</a> to form the <a href="/wiki/Northern_line" title="Northern line">Northern line</a>. Because tram and bus routes converged at Kennington, in the 1920s St. Mark's became known as the "tramwayman's church", and Kennington was referred to as the "<a href="/wiki/Clapham_Junction_(area)" title="Clapham Junction (area)">Clapham Junction</a> of the southern roads".<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>By 1926, construction of the <a href="/wiki/Belgrave_Hospital_for_Children" title="Belgrave Hospital for Children">Belgrave Hospital for Children</a>, designed by <a href="/wiki/Henry_Percy_Adams_(architect)" class="mw-redirect" title="Henry Percy Adams (architect)">Henry Percy Adams</a> and <a href="/wiki/Charles_Holden" title="Charles Holden">Charles Holden</a>, was complete.

The number of people killed remains unknown; it is believed by local historians that 104 people died.

In 1969, squatters moved into one of the houses and later entered the other empty properties and established a Rastafari temple. The street became London's longest-running squat. From 1977, Lambeth Council sought to evict the squatters and eventually succeeded at the High Court in 2005. The houses and the temple were declared to be unfit for human habitation and were pulled down in 2007. The Kennington Park Extension now covers much of the site. </p><p>Lambeth Council designated much of Kennington a <a href="/wiki/Conservation_Area" class="mw-redirect" title="Conservation Area">Conservation Area</a> in 1968, the boundary of which was extended in 1979 and in 1997. Lambeth Council's emphasis on conserving and protecting Kennington's architectural heritage and enhancing its attractive open spaces for recreation and leisure is illustrated by restoration of the centre of the listed Cleaver Square in the last decade of the twentieth century. Originally grassed over in the 1790s, the centre of Cleaver Square had by the 1870s become a garden circumscribed by a formal path, but by 1898 it had been cultivated as a nursery with greenhouses. In 1927 the centre of Cleaver Square was acquired by the London County Council to forestall a proposal to build on it, and more trees were then planted and the garden was gravelled over as a recreation ground. During the war years, in particular, the recreation area became somewhat derelict but during the 1950s Cleaver Square's inherent charm was recognised anew and its fortunes once more began to rise. In 1995, Lambeth Council resolved, with the backing of English Heritage, a grant from the <a href="/wiki/Heritage_Lottery_Fund" class="mw-redirect" title="Heritage Lottery Fund">Heritage Lottery Fund</a>, and donations from residents of <a href="/wiki/Cleaver_Square" title="Cleaver Square">Cleaver Square</a>, to restore the centre of the square to provide once again an attractive and peaceful public space for the people of Kennington.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In the summer months many people from Kennington and further afield play <a href="/wiki/P%C3%A9tanque" title="Pétanque">pétanque</a> in the centre of the square. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="21st-century_gentrification">21st-century gentrification</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Kennington&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: 21st-century gentrification"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In recent years, Kennington has experienced <a href="/wiki/Gentrification" title="Gentrification">gentrification</a>, principally because of its location and good transport links to the <a href="/wiki/West_End_of_London" title="West End of London">West End</a> and the <a href="/wiki/City_of_London" title="City of London">City of London</a>.

The good architectural and structural quality of many properties in Kennington – characterised by Georgian and Victorian terraces of yellow <a href="/wiki/London_stock_brick" title="London stock brick">London stock brick</a>, typically three storeys or higher, fronting the main roads and squares – has unquestionably contributed to the gentrification of the area. Nevertheless, a significant proportion of housing in the area is council-owned, including some council estates adjacent to Kennington Lane, leading up to Elephant and Castle, and around the Kennington Park area. In the twenty-first century there has been an ongoing programme by Lambeth Council of upgrading its stock of housing and in many cases improving its external appearance. The area's varied social texture demonstrates the population mix. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Governance">Governance</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Kennington&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Governance"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The local authority is <a href="/wiki/Lambeth_London_Borough_Council" title="Lambeth London Borough Council">Lambeth London Borough Council</a>. </p><p>Kennington is a standalone ward itself represented by three Labour Party councillors.
