Balham
Balham is a neighbourhood of south London, England, part in the London Borough of Wandsworth and part in the London Borough of Lambeth.
==History==
The settlement appears in the ''Domesday Book'' as ''Belgeham''. Bal refers to 'rounded enclosure' and ham to a homestead, village or river enclosure. It was held by Geoffrey Orlateile. Its ''Domesday'' Assets were: 1½ ploughs, of meadow. It rendered (in total): £2.〔(Surrey ''Domesday Book'' )〕
The Balham area has been settled since Saxon times. Balham Hill and Balham High Road follow the line of the Roman road Stane Street to Chichester – (now the A24 road). Balham is recorded in several maps in the 1600s as Ballam or Balham Hill or Balham Manor. The village was within the parish of Streatham. Large country retreats for the affluent classes were built there in the 18th century; however, most development occurred after the opening of Balham railway station on the line to Crystal Palace in 1856.
