The name Bermondsey was first mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. The name is supposed to mean "Beommund's Island". Once a derelict line of waterfront wharehouses and wharves, Bermondsey today has been transformed into some of the most upmarket residential and commercial properties in London.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
