  • Kennington is an area of South London, England, in the London Borough of Lambeth. It is a mixed class residential area, and is the location of the The Oval, the well-known cricket stadium. Kennington appears in Domesday Book of 1086 as Chenintune. It was held by Teodric (Theodoric) the Goldsmith. It rendered: 1 hide and 3 virgates; 3 ploughs, 4 acres (16,000 m) of meadow. It rendered £3. Edward III gave the manor of Kennington to his oldest son Edward "the Black Prince" in 1337, and the prince then built a large royal palace between what is now Black Prince Road and Sancroft Street. Geoffrey Chaucer was employed at Kennington as Clerk of Works in 1389. He was paid 2 shillings. Much of this area of Kennington continues to be owned by the current monarch's elder son (HRH Princes of Wales, Duke of Cornwall - see Dukes of Cornwall) to the present day. Kennington Park and St Mark's Churchyard now cover the site of Kennington Common. In 1746 the Surrey County Gallows at the southern end of the common was used for the execution of nine leaders of the Jacobite rebellion of 1745. The Common was also where the Chartists gathered for their biggest demonstration in 1848. "The Gymnastic Society" met regularly at Kennington Common during the second half of the eighteenth century to play football The Society - arguably the world's first Football club - consisted of London-based natives of Cumberland and Westmoreland. (Fuller details of the Common's history are in the Kennington Park article. ) Kennington Park Road and Clapham Road is a long and straight stretch of road because it follows the old Roman Stane Street. This ran down from the Roman London Bridge to Chichester via the gap in the North Downs at Box Hill near Dorking. Another Roman road branched off opposite Kennington Road and went down through what is now Kennington Park and down the Brixton Road. It carried on through the North Downs near Caterham to Hassocks, just north of the South Downs. Cactus TV, which used to produce the Richard & Judy programme, is in Kennington Road. Nearest places: Vauxhall Walworth Newington — usually known as Elephant and Castle Stockwell Camberwell Nearest tube stations: Kennington tube station Oval tube station
  • Kennington est un quartier du Sud de Londres, situé dans le district londonien de Lambeth. C'est une banlieue résidentielle très ouvrière et on y trouve l'Ovale, célèbre stade de cricket. En 1337 Édouard III a donné le manoir de Kennington à son fils aîné Édouard, le « Prince Noir », qui a construit alors un grand palais royal entre ce qui est maintenant Black Prince Road et Sancroft Street. Geoffrey Chaucer a été employé à Kennington comme secrétaire des travaux en 1389, recevant pour cette tâche 2 shillings. Le domaine de Kennington appartient toujours aux fils aînés des souverains (Princes de Galles et ducs de Cornouaille). Le Parc de Kennington (créé par l'architecte victorien James Pennethorne) et le cimetière Saint-Marc occupent maintenant l'emplacement du Common, le pré communal de Kennington. En 1746 le Gibet du Comté de Surrey, à l'extrémité sud du Common, a été utilisé pour exécuter neuf chefs de la rébellion jacobite de 1745. Le Common a été aussi l'endroit où les chartistes se sont rassemblés pour leur plus grande manifestation en 1848. Kennington Park Road et Clapham Road constituent une route longue et droite qui suit la vieille route romaine. Elle va du Pont romain de Londres à Chichester en passant par le seuil des collines du Nord à Box Hill, près de Dorking. Une autre route romaine bifurquait du côté opposé à Kennington Road et descendait par ce qui est maintenant Kennington Park jusqu'à Brixton Road. À travers les Collines du Nord elle conduisait à Hassocks près de Caterham, juste au nord des Collines du Sud.

  • Kennington is een wijk in het Londense bestuurlijke gebied Lambeth, in de regio Groot-Londen.
  • Kennington er et område i London, i bydelen Lambeth på sørsida av Themsen. Kennington er et typisk arbeiderklassestrøk, dominert av boligkvartaler. Mest kjent er Kennington for det store cricketstadionet The Oval. Navnet kommer fra det angelsaksiske Kyning-tun («Kongsgården»). Edvard III skjenket sin eldste sønn Edward, den svarte prinsen (The Black Prince) Kennington herregård i 1337, og prinsen bygde et slott mellom det som i dag er Black Prince Road og Sancroft Street. Denne delen av Kennington har vært monarkens eldste sønner prinsen av Wales' og hertugen av Cornwalls eiendom helt fram til i dag. På 1800-tallet ble Kennington Common et yndet utfluktssted for befolkninga på sørsida av byen, og et sted for møter og store demonstrasjoner. Det var her den engelske chartistbevegelsen hadde sin største manifestasjon i 1848 med 150 000 deltakere. I tidligere tider tjente Kennington Common som rettersted for grevskapet Surrey. Her ble f. eks. ni ledere for jakobitterne hengt i 1746. Kennington Common er seinere blitt omgjort til Kennington Park. Parken blir fortsatt ofte brukt til demonstrasjoner. Den lange, rette hovedgata Kennington Road/Clapham Road følger den gamle romervegen Stane Street, som forbandt London med Chichester. En annen romersk veg tok av ved Kennington Park og fulgte Brixton Road mot Hassocks ved South Downs. Kennington ble tungt bomba under andre verdenskrig, og ikke mye eldre bebyggelse er derfor å finne lenger.
