William Hale White

Honeywood. In the 1880's John Kirk, a merchant, reconstructed a building called Wandle Cottage on this site and transferred the name 'Honeywood' from the neighbouring house, which he demolished. Novelist and philosopher William Henry Hale White ("Mark Rutherford") lived in Wandle Cottage, 1804-6. A watercourse runs beneath the house.
