Further exploration of Brixton Village
- Brixton Village opened in the 30's as a market for fresh fish and produce
- Sold to new owners in 2009 - introducing of new restaurants and shops, targeting a younger, trendier ground. Similar to that of Nottinghill?
- Transformed the face of the village, pushing out locals and causing rising rent prices
- Is the spirit in which Brixton Village was born still alive?
- Below are some pictures that took last year when visiting. Not very good quality camera
- Could chose to focus on the latest craze of shops coming into the market. Those that have bought out other shops. Chain shops such as Champagne & Fromage - very upper class cheese and wine type place.
- Have access to a couple of independent shops and a bar that started right before the big craze. Could focus on the middle ground of people who believe they've earned their spot in the market and that they are in keeping with Brixton
- Could focus on those that have been there since the beginning and have seen the vast change and are struggling to keep up with the rent prices. Giving credit to those that are being affected the most.
