BECKENHAM COPERS COPE & KANGLEY BRIDGE Character The introduction of the railway in mid-Victorian times saw Beckenham develop from a small village into a town on the edge of suburbia. The majority of dwellings in the area are Victorian with some 1940’s and 50’s flats and houses. On the whole houses tend to have fair sized gardens; however, where there are smaller dwellings and flatted developments there is a lack of available off-street parking. During the later part of the 20th century a significant number of Victorian villas were converted or replaced by modern blocks of flats or housing. Ten conservation areas have been established to help preserve and enhance the appearance of the area reflecting the historic character of the area.

  • Section 1 Introduction
    NORBURY 2019 A discussion paper Introduction Norbury has and will continue to experience changes some of which are beneficial and others which many residents consider are detrimental. This discussion paper has been drafted to review what is known about the local residents, and the social, economic, housing, development, and transport issues affecting Norbury in spring 2019, and the issues that have been dealt with in the last five years by the Residents Associations, Councillors, and other local organisations. During the cut and thrust of activities it is easy to forget what has happened. As new residents become involved they may find it helpful to know that background. Similarly it important that Council officers who are new to the area have that knowledge and understanding. This discussion paper seeks to analyse the characteristics and changes that have been happening in the two wards, and the issues that have been and continue to be dealt with. It draws on statistical material mainly on the Croydon Observatory website and in Council reports. A section on Norbury Park is being finalised. As it is a draft comments are welcome as to any factual inaccuracies, and any information and analysis that should be added. At the moment this paper is not for publication.

  • The Crystal Palace
    The Crystal Palace The Crystal Palace was a cast-iron and plate-glass structure originally The Crystal Palace built in Hyde Park, London, to house the Great Exhibition of 1851. More than 14,000 exhibitors from around the world gathered in its 990,000-square-foot (92,000 m2) exhibition space to display examples of technology developed in the Industrial Revolution. Designed by Joseph Paxton, the Great Exhibition building was 1,851 feet (564 m) long, with an interior height of 128 feet (39 m).[1] The invention of the cast plate glass method in 1848 made possible the production of large sheets of cheap but strong glass, and its use in the Crystal Palace created a structure with the greatest area of glass ever seen in a building and astonished visitors with its clear walls and ceilings that did not require interior lights. It has been suggested that the name of the building resulted from a The Crystal Palace at Sydenham (1854) piece penned by the playwright Douglas Jerrold, who in July 1850 General information wrote in the satirical magazine Punch about the forthcoming Great Status Destroyed Exhibition, referring to a "palace of very crystal".[2] Type Exhibition palace After the exhibition, it was decided to relocate the Palace to an area of Architectural style Victorian South London known as Penge Common. It was rebuilt at the top of Town or city London Penge Peak next to Sydenham Hill, an affluent suburb of large villas. It stood there from 1854 until its destruction by fire in 1936. The nearby Country United Kingdom residential area was renamed Crystal Palace after the famous landmark Coordinates 51.4226°N 0.0756°W including the park that surrounds the site, home of the Crystal Palace Destroyed 30 November 1936 National Sports Centre, which had previously been a football stadium Cost £2 million that hosted the FA Cup Final between 1895 and 1914.

  • Blue Plaque Beckenham and Anerley
    Blue Plaque Beckenham and Anerley Start outside ‘Zizzis’, 157 High Street, Beckenham (TQ372693). There is a red and gold plaque on the wall stating that rock musician David Bowie (born David Jones in 1947, died in 2016) performed here (when it was ‘The Three Tuns’) between 1969 and 1973. No Blue Plaque has as yet been erected in the Borough to commemorate the recent death of this world famous and highly original musician. However, a mural to him has been unveiled in ‘The Glades’ shopping centre in Bromley, a plaque has been added to his home in Germany, and Blue Plaques have been erected in Soho and Maidstone. Walk westwards down the High Street to the War Memorial on the roundabout, then turn left along Croydon Road, A222. Children’s writer Enid Blyton once lived with her parents at 13 Westfield Road (first turning right). Turn right on reaching Cromwell Road.
