Leaflet Distribution SW16
Introduction
The SW16 postcode covers the areas of Streatham, Streatham Vale, Streatham Park, Norbury and Furzedown.
It neighbours on Streatham Hill in the North, Tooting and Balham in the West, Croydon in the South and West Norwood in the East. SW16 covers a large area with some 30,000 residents.
SW16 is relatively well connected with three train stations. Streatham, Streatham Common and Norbury Station provide access to Stouthern and Thameslink service to the local residents. Some Northern Line stations like Tooting Beck or Tooting Broadway are also within walking distance.
Together with a reasonable number of bus lines running through the areas and connecting SW16 with the tube lines it is a relatively easy to access part of London for many professionals working in Central London.
Streatham Common is the largest green area within the borders of SW16.
Tooting Beck Common and the Tooting Beck Lido, Norwood Grove Recreation Grounds, Norbury Park and Pollards Hill are also some of the nicer green spaces within the postcode.
Streatham
The north-eastern part of SW16 covers the area of Streatham. East of Streatham High Road and North of Streatham Common towards Leigham Court Road we’ll find mostly terraced houses built in a variety of styles.
There are almost no undeliverable areas here and as such it is a great place for leaflet distribution. The occasional inaccessible council building or a block of flats can be found here but are easily avoided.
If we go west of Streatham High Road towards Mitcham Lane, we will find a combination of nice Victorian terraced homes and an occasional pocket of larger buildings with multiple flats.
Many of these do have accessible letterboxes and as such can be delivered to.
Due to the amount of green spaces that are lining this area, there are also pockets of larger detached and semi-detached homes in this part of Streatham.
Norbury
Moving South to Streatham Vale and Norbury heading down towards Strathyre Avenue, we will find large spread out neighbourhoods full of terraced homes. These are mostly easy to deliver. Some detached and semi-detached homes can also be found in the western part of Norbury.
Due to the density and accessibility of housing Norbury and Streatham Vale can take a considerable number of leaflets to cover in full.
Furzedown
Furzedown is located just west of Streatham station. Furzedown is a mix of mostly terraced houses with some inaccessible local authority housing. The terraced houses here can be found mostly in streets shooting off Mitcham Lane. Furzedown recreation centre is green area providing the locals with access to an extra bit of nature and sporting activities.
