Towns, cities and regions, such as   South London  have an influence on the style of music, whether it is the 'English Countryside' feel of Vaughan Williams, the strength of Elgar's Victorian Malvern, or the skirl of Northumbrian Pipe tune.

About  South London   

South London is the entire area of Greater London south of the River Thames. Largely residential, it has fewer historic sites and important government and business sites than Central London, simply because London grew out of the cities of Westminster and London, both on the northern bank of the river. The southern bank, at the time of the Roman settlement, was a swampy, poorly drained area of land which deterred building. Many large scale developments are taking place, and planned for South London. Many of the largest developments are urban regeneration projects, in which deprived areas are given multi-million/billion pound masterplans. These projects are taking place in Elephant & Castle, Lewisham, and Kidbrooke. Other developments include Greenwich Peninsula, the site of several thousand new homes, Croydon Vision 2020, a mixture of retail, apartments, leisure and offices in Croydon and Battersea Power Station, which will be renovated as a leisure, retail and entertainment complex.
