Sydenham, Leamington Spa
Sydenham is an eastern suburb of the town of Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, England. Prior to the 1960s the area was rural, with only agricultural buildings and a small water mill existing. Sydenham as a name is a corruption of ''side'' meaning "wide or open spaces" and ''ham'' meaning "a piece of land enclosed by rivers or water courses". The three water courses in question are the small Radbrook and the much larger River Leam and the Grand Union Canal. Two railway lines crossed the area, the Rugby–Leamington line in 1851 and the Chiltern Main Line in 1852. Between 1884 and 1914 there was a Polo ground in the area.
