It has a population of around 101,000 people and it’s situated approximately 8 miles south-east from central London. The name “Mitcham” derives from the Anglo Saxon word meaning “place where willows grow by the river Mole” (the River Mole runs through Mitcham). Historically, much of what we know about early medieval life comes from archaeological finds made in and around this town. For example, there have been discoveries of remains dating back to Roman times such as villas and baths; evidence that suggests trade was important to these communities long before they had contact with Britain's Celtic neighbours1 . Today, most residents commute into central London for work but some still enjoy spending time outdoors enjoying recreational activities like walking or cycling2 .

Mitcham has been home to many notable people such as actors Roger Moore and Richard Attenborough; politicians Neil Kinnock and John Major; comedians Benny Hill and Harry Enfield; singers Cliff Richard and Lulu. The name "Mitcham" may be derived from an Old English word meaning either "muddy place", or possibly "place of meeting". It seems that there were two settlements called Mitcham: one on what is now Church Lane (to which reference has already been made), near where St Leonard's Hospital stands ; another about half a mile further downriver, upon some rising ground close by the present railway bridge over Wandle River . In 1276 Henry III granted both these places to Walter de Merton for life with remainder to his heirs male...

Mitcham is a town in south London, England. The town has an estimated population of around 50,000 people.[1] Mitcham was originally part of the parish of Lambeth,[2] but became an independent civil parish in 1894. The name "Mitcham" may be derived from the Celtic word mich meaning meadow or clearing[5], although this theory has been disputed by other scholars who believe it derives from Anglo-Saxon words for boundary marker such as micel meaning mill stream or meeting place and hamme meaning dammed river valley).[6][7][8] A more likely explanation suggests that it comes from Old English mycelm which means woodland cleared by burning and -hamma referring to a type locality near present day Mitcham Common where oak trees were found growing wild after being burned down during Viking raids circa 790 AD)[9]. There are records dating back to Saxon times when local landowners held rights over fisheries at various locations within what would become Mitcham including Pond Lane/Ponders End Road, East Hill/Eastlands Avenue etc., however these have not yet been traced beyond surface level research nor do they offer any clues about how early settlement took place on these sites. However despite extensive excavations no evidence relating directly either archaeologically or historically speaking specifically towards human habitation prior thereto before medieval times can currently be identified with certainty notwithstanding ongoing investigative work undertaken since initial discovery [11],[12],[13]. Notwithstanding all this there seems little doubt that prehistory played some formative role both culturally & spiritually impacting subsequent indigenous British community inhabiting area now known commonly referred as 'the Forest Of Dean'extending into neighbouring Gloucestershire counties well into post Norman Conquest era evidenced through numerous prehistoric burial grounds still extant today scattered liberally across South Eastern England often unmarked even though legally protected under law e.g.. Avebury henge complex Wiltshire , Stonehenge Wilts
Mitcham is a town located in the London Borough of Merton. The town has a population of around 51,000 people and covers an area of 8.5 square kilometers (3 sq mi). The River Mole runs through central Mitcham and provides much needed water for local businesses and residents. The history of drainage systems in Mitcham can be traced back to when humans started living there thousands of years ago. Early inhabitants would have used natural waterways such as rivers and streams to manage their waste disposal needs.[2] Over time, various forms of drainage were developed including ditches, canals, sewers, mains pipes etc.[5][6] Today's Clearing Blocked Drains Mitcham continue to play an important role in managing municipal resources while ensuring public safety[7], for example Closed Circuit Television monitoring helps prevent crime scenes from becoming contaminated with hazardous materials such as drugs or blood which could leadto serious health risks if not properly cleaned up [8]. ; Stormscauselargeamountofwatertocirculatethroughtownsandc
Mitcham is a town located in the London Borough of Merton. The name Mitcham derives from the Anglo-Saxon word "miceham" meaning 'the meadow by the mill'. The first record of Mitcham was made in 705 when it was mentioned as part of land belonging to Westminster Abbey under King Æthelred II. In 1801, parts of what would become Mitcham were transferred to form part of Bromley Parish Council; this included much farmland which had been used for grazing sheep since medieval times. As well as agriculture, early industries included brewing and tanning leathers using horsehide processing plants that still operate today on Manor Road near Addiscombe railway station (). In 1896–97 work began on constructing Victoria Park along with other public works projects funded by local ratepayers through their elected parish councils – these include: building roads (including Newington Causeway), erecting streetlights and water tanks etc., all completed at a cost exceeding £100,000 (£8 million in 2016 values). This period also saw development take place closer to residential areas such as East Hill where terraced houses were built between 1895 and 1897 followed by semi-detached dwellings towards West Hill during 1898/99 . A further spur for housing growth came with electrification throughout Greater London starting from 1926 onwards which led many households into buying electric appliances including washing machines () or gas cookers (). From about 1930 onward there was significant investment taking place within both commercial premises such as shops or offices (), but also new homes being constructed especially nearer major transport hubs like Slough Common railway station (), Hayes & Harlington Bus Garage () or Addison Way shopping centre (). Today's economy is very different compared with 50 years ago - one example being retail trade now employs less labour thanks largely to online sales ; moreover transportation links have changed so that commuters no longer need live close together unlike previous generations who may have worked locally then travelled short distances home at night .
