On the 1839 Brixton Tithe Map plot 469 is recorded as 'Higher Bakers Park' and the adjacent plot 468 to the south is recorded as 'Lower Bakers Park' within the Tithe Apportionment. Given the location of these fields in close proximity to Brixton, it is possible that these field names relate to a bakery within the vicinity.
